rte_eth_fdir is a name which doesn't say what it really is.
This structure looks like a collection of statistics.
Why not rte_eth_fdir_stats?

> +struct rte_eth_fdir_ext {
> +	uint16_t guarant_spc;  /**< guaranteed spaces.*/

I don't understand why this "extended" structure is not merged in the first one.
Adding new fields don't break old API.

OK content of this comment is good.
But the second sentence has no start.
Please try to have an uppercase letter at the beginning of your sentences,
and a subject followed by a verb.
(side note: this is also true for commit logs)

> +struct rte_eth_fdir_info {
> +	int mode;                 /**< if 0 disbale, if 1 enable*/

Typo: disbale
