PCTYPE is an unknown word in the API layer.
Could you replace it by something more generic?

> +	RTE_ETH_HASH_FILTER_INFO_TYPE_SYM_HASH_ENA_PER_PORT,
> +	RTE_ETH_HASH_FILTER_INFO_TYPE_FILTER_SWAP,
> +	RTE_ETH_HASH_FILTER_INFO_TYPE_HASH_FUNCTION,
> +	RTE_ETH_HASH_FILTER_INFO_TYPE_MAX,

You should comment each constant.

No, PCTYPE is not anymore defined in ethdev.

> +/**

> +struct rte_eth_filter_swap_info {
> +	/**< Packet classification type, defined in rte_ethdev.h */
> +	uint8_t pctype;
> +	/**< Offset of the 1st field of the 1st couple to be swapped. */

> +	/**< Offset of the 1st field of the 2nd couple to be swapped. */
> +	uint8_t off1_src0;
> +	/**< Offset of the 2nd field of the 2nd couple to be swapped. */
> +	uint8_t off1_src1;
> +	/**< Field length of the second couple. */
> +	uint8_t len1;
> +};

I guess it would be easier to understand if
RTE_ETH_HASH_FILTER_INFO_TYPE_FILTER_SWAP was defined previously.
