Missed this one: Gaëtan also had same comment, copy-paste from other mail related to my concerns using rte_flow: " rte_flow is to create flow rules in PMD level, but what this library aims to collect flow information, independent from if underlying PMD implemented rte_flow or not. So issues with using rte_flow for this use case: 1- It may not be implemented for all PMDs (including virtual ones). 2- It may conflict with other rte_flow rules created by user. 3- It may not gather all information required. (I mean some actions here, count like ones are easy but rte_flow may not be so flexible to extract different metrics from flows) "
