Detailed Description

RTE Flow Classify Library.

Warning
EXPERIMENTAL: All functions in this file may be changed or removed without prior notice.

This library provides flow record information with some measured properties.

Application should define the flow and measurement criteria (action) for it.

The Library doesn't maintain any flow records itself, instead flow information is returned to upper layer only for given packets.

It is application's responsibility to call rte_flow_classifier_query() for a burst of packets, just after receiving them or before transmitting them. Application should provide the flow type interested in, measurement to apply to that flow in rte_flow_classify_table_entry_add() API, and should provide the rte_flow_classifier object and storage to put results in for the rte_flow_classifier_query() API.

Usage:
