[PATCH] net/bonding: add rte flow support

[PATCH] net/bonding: add rte flow support

[Matan Azrad]

Ethernet devices which are grouped by bonding PMD, aka slaves, are
sharing the same queues and RSS configurations and their Rx burst
functions must be managed by the bonding PMD according to the bonding
architectuer.

So, it makes sense to configure the same flow rules for all the bond
slaves to allow consistency in packet flow management.

Add rte flow support to the bonding PMD to manage all flow
configuration to the bonded slaves.

Hi Declan, Radu,

Any comment on the patch?

Declan, do you want to review this patch?
Or are you OK to merge it?

Re: [PATCH] net/bonding: add rte flow support

[Doherty, Declan]

Firstly, apologies on the very large delay on reviewing this. This looks 
good to me and I've verified that flow configuration propagates as 
expected to bonded slaves using IXGBE PMDs for testing.

I had to do some minor rebasing to get the patch to apply cleanly to 
next-net, so I'll leave it up to Ferruh on whether he wants a rebased 
revision of the patch or if he is happy to apply as is and handle the 
rebasing himself.

I will do a v6 of the tunnel encap/decap patchset rebased to this 
patchset to handle the changes to the rte_flow_query API as I need to 
send a new revision of that to fix some whitespace issue I added in the 
last revision of it.

Regards
Declan
