Re: [PATCH v2] doc: introduce networking driver matrix

Hi Thomas,

Got a couple of questions on how to mark some of the features for CXGBE
below.

In order to better compare the drivers and check what is missing
for a common baseline, we need to fill a matrix.

A CSS trick is used to fit the HTML page.
The PDF output needs some LaTeX wizardry.

It is possible to set some of the above filters via our cxgbe flow
director. Do we mark these filter features as supported?

Is this the same as the driver's ability to fill the mbuf->packet_type
field?
