Re: [PATCH net-next 0/7] nfp: extend match and action for flower offload

[Tom Herbert <tom@herbertland.com>]

Simon,

Maybe a bit off topic, but I had the impression netronome would
support BPF so that filters could be programmed for arbitrary
protocols and fields. Is that true? If so, what is the relationship
between that functionality and these patches?

Thanks,
Tom
