  When an age action becomes aged-out the rte_flow_get_aged_flows should
return the action context supplied by the configuration structure.

In case the age action created by the shared action API, the shared
action context of the Testpmd application was not set.

In addition, the application handler of the contexts returned by the
rte_flow_get_aged_flows API didn't consider the fact that the action
could be set by the shared action API and considered it as regular flow
context.

This caused a crash in Testpmd when the context is parsed.

This patch set context type in the flow and shared action context and
uses it to parse the aged-out contexts correctly.

The port flow is using 'update_age_action_context()' function, can same function 
be utilized to update age context for shared action too?

btw, not sure why 'update_age_action_context()' is not static, if you will touch 
it can you please make it static function?

And overall this context setting for the age action is requiring the special 
conditions in the flow create path, can you please check if it can be moved to 
'cmdline_flow.c' for age parsing code somehow?

At this stage you don't know if the context is 'pf' or 'psa', but you rely that 
both structure first element is "enum testpmd_context_type" and this requirement 
is completely undocumented.

Why don't create a common context and pass that one the the age action for both 
'pf' & 'psa', like

struct port_flow_age_action_context {
     enum testpmd_context_type ctype;
     union {
         struct port_flow *pf;
         struct port_shared_action *psa;
     } ctx;
};

I think this also prevents to corrupt 'pf' and 'psa' just for age action.

When the context is 'CONTEXT_TYPE_SHARED_ACTION', who destroys it?

The enum prefix is too generic, 'CONTEXT_TYPE_', what do you think clarifying 
what context we are talking about?

For updating flow context, the code iterates all actions to find the age action - so it worth to call dedicate function.
For updating  shared action context - it a direct access.
So, they have different search method.

Yes, will add a comment.

We considered this option too,
It looked us more optimized to not utilize more memory and alloc\free time for each age context.

One more option we considered:

Use age action context pointer as uint32_t\uintptr_t - use 2 bits for type and others for pf->id psa->id.
What do you think about this?

Destroy request is optional, I didn't add a support to destroy something here:
1 options here is to save all the flows assigned to the age shared action inside the shared action context and destroy all of them + the shared aged action.
It can be step 2 later.

What do you think about changing the rte_flow_get_aged_flows API name to rte_flow_get_aged_contexts ?

Just to reduce the age action related churn in the code, if it can be abstracted 
in to a single function I prefer it, if that doesn't make sense it is OK.

Will 'id' be enough? I see other information is used, though not sure if it is 
only for print.

I will be unexpected to use the pointer for id but it works, can you please add 
enough comment to clarify the usage?

Here context has some data do identify the aged flows, right? If so 
'rte_flow_get_aged_flows' also reasonable I think.

No strong opinion but the API name as it is looks good to me.

From the id we can get the pointer(and other information) - this is the same ID as supplied by the command line user to query\destroy an existed flows.

If you mean code comment, yes I will add.
