+ * A packet can be identified by hardware as different flow types. Different
+ * NIC hardwares may support different flow types.
+ * Basically, the NIC hardware identifies the flow type as deep protocol as
+ * possible, and exclusively. For example, if a packet is identified as
+ * 'RTE_ETH_FLOW_NONFRAG_IPV4_TCP', it will not be any of other flow types,
+ * though it is an actual IPV4 packet.
+ * Note that the flow types are used to define RSS offload types in
+ * rte_ethdev.h.
