Hi Qi & Andrew
if user configure rss func for symmetric toeplitz, RSS types must be
updated at the same time?
flow create 0 ingress pattern end actions rss func symmetric_toepilitz
types tcp end / end
if use the following cmd:
flow create 0 ingress pattern end actions rss func symmetric_toepilitz
types end / end
it is wrong and the driver will print the error info.
How to understand this limitation?
Thanks
