   - Modification of the 802.1Q Tag, VXLAN Network or GENEVE Network ID's is not supported.
   - Encapsulation levels are not supported, can modify outermost header fields only.
   - Offsets must be 32-bits aligned, cannot skip past the boundary of a field.
+  - if the field type is RTE_FLOW_FIELD_MAC_TYPE and packet contains one
+    or more VLAN headers, the meaningful type field following the last
+    VLAN header is used as modify field operation argument. The modify field

+    push and pop actions should be used instead.
 
 - IPv6 header item 'proto' field, indicating the next header protocol, should
   not be set as extension header.
