Hi, I upgraded to DPDK 18.05 from 17.11 and a previously-working rte_flow
code now fails. I'm using the mlx5 driver, and when I do something similar
to the rte_flow example code, the following error shows:
"VLAN cannot be empty"
I looked at the code in .drivers/net/mlx5/mlx5_flow.c, and it looks like it
now complains when the mask isn't set on a VLAN flow layer. I tried setting
the mask to 0xffff, and the error no longer shows, but packets are not
classified properly either, and they all go to queue 0. Has anyone been
able to get a working rte_flow queue classifier working with 18.05+?

It is because of a recent patch http://patchwork.dpdk.org/patch/36068/
If you don't care about VLAN action, just remove that action all together
and check the correctness of your code.
If all of them are going to q0 (and assuming isolation mode is not
enabled), then it is most likely because packets don't match any of the
rte_flow rules you created.

Thanks, I will try that. I saw that patch, but couldn't find any working
examples with vlan. In the other layers, such as Ethernet, zeroing out the
source and dest has the effect of allowing all. However, the vlan on
mellanox cards breaks that it seems because of the IB compatibility. I
think the flow filtering example needs to be updated, since it will no
longer work on these cards. If I get it working I'll submit a PR.
