Subject: net/mlx4: expose support for flow rule priorities
X-Git-Tag: spdx-start~1367
X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a5171594fc3b592e760436c36d649db44ff16197;p=dpdk.git

net/mlx4: expose support for flow rule priorities

This PMD supports up to 4096 flow rule priority levels (0 to 4095).

Applications were not allowed to use them until now due to overlaps with
the default flows (e.g. MAC address, promiscuous mode).

This is not an issue in isolated mode when such flows do not exist.
