Sorry for not catching this series before. As it has been said several times on this mailing list, the flow director API is deprecated. I think everybody here knows that it is going to be replaced by rte_flow. That's why it does not make sense to extend flow director. We are not going to update PMDs to support a new type of legacy flow director. Please focus your efforts on rte_flow. > > Kirill Rybalchenko (2): > > ethdev: add support for raw flow type for flow director > > net/i40e: add support for raw flow type for flow director > > Series Reviewed-by: Ferruh Yigit
