Subject: [dpdk-dev] [RFC] net/mlx5: add modify-header support using Direct Verbs
Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2018 11:23:47 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <VI1PR05MB4224F49395D2E31D0F15F608B6D20@VI1PR05MB4224.eurprd05.prod.outlook.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <VI1PR05MB422403D4CBC557AF2C44FE5BB6D20@VI1PR05MB4224.eurprd05.prod.outlook.com>

Modify-header actions support is implemented in librte_ethdev, and in test-pmd application, based on [1].
These actions include setting of source/destination IP, MAC & TP, as well as TTL.
Currently MLX5 PMD supports modify-header actions using TCF (netlink) API only.

This RFC adds to MLX5 PMD the support of modify-header actions, using Direct Verbs API.
It includes:

  *   Glue APIs to relevant DV functions and types.
  *   Validate modify-header actions.
  *   Convert modify-header actions to DV format.

Comments are welcome.
