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)
