[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 07/17] mlx5: define specific flow steering rules for each hash RX QP

Mon Oct 5 19:54:42 CEST 2015


From: Olga Shern <olgas at mellanox.com>

All hash RX QPs currently use the same flow steering rule (L2 MAC filtering)
regardless of their type (TCP, UDP, IPv4, IPv6), which prevents them from
being dispatched properly. This is fixed by adding flow information to the
hash RX queue initialization data and generating specific flow steering
rules for each of them.
