RSS on L2TP, Teredo, PPPoE Tunnels

Hello DPDK Team,

Hope you guys are doing great !!

We are developing application with dpdk 22.03 & Mellanox Connectx-6 adapter,
Want to use IP-Port tuples (Inner in case of tunnels) to RSS traffic to multiple queues.

We need to handle L2TPv2/3, Teredo, PPPoE etc, but adapter have limited tunnels support.

Is there a way/possibility in DPDK to support mentioned or define user specific tunnels & achieve RSS on inner tuples ?

From documentation, we came across these approaches:

1.       Rte flow Flex item:

a.       This is not supported by adapter.

2.       testpmd> flow tunnel create  0 type "":

a.        Not getting documentation to check.


Please suggest.

Environment:

*         OS: Ubuntu 20.04

*         Driver: MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.5-1.0.3.2

*         Firmware: 22.32.2004

Hello,

The Flex item API allows to extend network protocols provided in port hardware.
The API allows DPDK application build a custom network protocol parser after providing the protocol description.
You can create a Flex item for network protocols you’ve mentioned over mlx5 BlueField-2 ports.

Regards,
Gregory
