Sure, we can replace the RTE_REGEX_PCRE_RULE_MATCH_ALL_F with 
RTE_REGEX_DEV_CFG_MATCH_ALL, and add RTE_REGEX_DEV_CAPA_SUPP_MATCH_ALL

I think that it is good in any case to return a flag if the detection was based 
on 
more than one buffer.
So I don't really see the advantage of adding such a flag.
As far as I understand in your case if the match started in previous buffer and 
ended 
in the current buffer then you will return also the flag of 
RTE_REGEX_OPS_RSP_PMI_TOJ_F
For my general knowledge, in your system if we have the following regex: ABC
In the first buffer we have xxxA size 4 and the second buffer is BCxx
If I understand correctly for first buffer you will return no match found.
For the second buffer you will return found and end offset will be equal to  2
Am I correct?
Or you are going to return end offset 6 because it started from the previous 
buffer? 


Best,
Ori
