Subject: doc: add fields enum for modify action in flow guide
X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d2cf28145f36124a6ee9c0f75b29da47139f2872;p=dpdk.git

doc: add fields enum for modify action in flow guide

Fix the documentation about the MODIFY_FIELD flow action.
1. Include the rte_flow_field_id enumeration reference to point
to the full list of all supported Field IDs available.
2. Correct the formatting of the MODIFY_FIELD action and the
destination/source field definition tables.

Fixes: 73b68f4c54a0 ("ethdev: introduce generic modify flow action")
