Hi,

I am testing rte flow API across different DPDK-based NICs using some rules.
I noticed that flow rules that match L2 information, such as rule:

flow create 0 ingress pattern eth type is 0x800 / end actions queue index 6
/ end

does not work on an Intel 82599ES (igb_uio driver), while a
Mellanox ConnectX-4 (mlx5_core driver) accepts this rule.
Is there any reason behind this or could be a bug?

I am testing using DPDK v17.11.

Thanks,
Georgios
