Subject: [PATCH v5 00/11] Add API to get packet type info
To achieve this, a new function pointer, dev_ptype_info_get, is added
into struct eth_dev_ops. For those devices who do not implement it, it
means it will not provide any ptype info.
v5:
- Exclude l3fwd change from this series, as a separated one.
- Fix malposition of mlx4 code in mlx5 commit introduced in v4.
v4:
- Change how to use this API: to previously agreement reached in mail.
v3:
- Change how to use this API: api to allocate mem for storing ptype
array; and caller to free the mem.
- Change how to return back ptypes from PMDs: return a pointer to
corresponding static const array of supported ptypes, terminated
by RTE_PTYPE_UNKNOWN.
- Fix l3fwd parse_packet_type() when EXACT_MATCH is enabled.
- Fix l3fwd memory leak when calling the API.
v2:
- Move ptype_mask filter function from each PMDs into ether layer.
- Add ixgbe vPMD's ptype info.
- Fix code style issues.
