Would you please elaborate more on your use case?

What exactly do you wish to match on?

Currently, there is no plan to implement the RAW item.

However, with Bluefield 2 DPU, we implemented the flex item, that can be useful for you.

Subject: Feature request: MLX5 DPDK flow item type RAW support

Current DPDK 21.11 flow API does not support RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_RAW for MLX5.

I need support of RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_RAW in DPDK flow API to enqueue some ingress packets by content to GPU with support of GPUDirect RDMA and other to CPU via distinct HW queues (RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_QUEUE).

For now RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_UDP and RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_IPV4 filtering and enqueueing with address and ports are supported.

Are there any plans to support RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_RAW for MLX5?
