-flow_director_filter
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-The Flow Director works in receive mode to identify specific flows or sets of flows and route them to specific queues.
-
-Four types of filtering are supported which are referred to as Perfect Match, Signature, Perfect-mac-vlan and
-Perfect-tunnel filters, the match mode is set by the ``--pkt-filter-mode`` command-line parameter:
-
-* Perfect match filters.
- The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
- The masked fields are for IP flow.
-
-* Signature filters.
- The hardware checks a match between a hash-based signature of the masked fields of the received packet.
-
-* Perfect-mac-vlan match filters.
- The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
- The masked fields are for MAC VLAN flow.
-
-* Perfect-tunnel match filters.
- The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
- The masked fields are for tunnel flow.
-
-* Perfect-raw-flow-type match filters.
- The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and pre-loaded raw (template) packet.
- The masked fields are specified by input sets.
-
-The Flow Director filters can match the different fields for different type of packet: flow type, specific input set
-per flow type and the flexible payload.
-
-The Flow Director can also mask out parts of all of these fields so that filters
-are only applied to certain fields or parts of the fields.
-
-Note that for raw flow type mode the source and destination fields in the
-raw packet buffer need to be presented in a reversed order with respect
-to the expected received packets.
-For example: IP source and destination addresses or TCP/UDP/SCTP
-source and destination ports
-
-Different NICs may have different capabilities, command show port fdir (port_id) can be used to acquire the information.

-For example, to add an ipv4-udp flow type filter::
-
- testpmd> flow_director_filter 0 mode IP add flow ipv4-udp src 2.2.2.3 32 \
- dst 2.2.2.5 33 tos 2 ttl 40 vlan 0x1 flexbytes (0x88,0x48) \
- fwd pf queue 1 fd_id 1
-
-For example, add an ipv4-other flow type filter::
-
- testpmd> flow_director_filter 0 mode IP add flow ipv4-other src 2.2.2.3 \
- dst 2.2.2.5 tos 2 proto 20 ttl 40 vlan 0x1 \
- flexbytes (0x88,0x48) fwd pf queue 1 fd_id 1

-flush_flow_director
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Flush all flow director filters on a device::
-
- testpmd> flush_flow_director (port_id)
-
-Example, to flush all flow director filter on port 0::
-
- testpmd> flush_flow_director 0
