The original design is not wrong. ;-)

Since it is defined in librte_net, people will think it is just union
for network order quick access like 'struct rte_gre_hdr', but in fact
the bit field here is something like auxiliary data structure, we have
to translate the whole 4 byte from network order to host order for
accessing one bit field member, otherwise it will be wrong.

Like:

        struct rte_ecpri_common_hdr *eh;
        uint8_t pkt[4];

        pkt[0] = 0x10;
        pkt[1] = 0x03;
        pkt[2] = 0x00;
        pkt[3] = 0x18;

        eh = (struct rte_ecpri_common_hdr *)pkt;

        printf("eCPRI: 0x%08x, revision = %u, type = %u size = %u\n",
                eh->u32, eh->revision, eh->type, ntohs(eh->size));

eCPRI: 0x18000310, revision = 1, type = 0 size = 4099

But in fact it should be:

eCPRI: 0x18000310, revision = 1, type = 3 size = 24


After the enhancement (new revision from RFCv1):

struct rte_ecpri_common_hdr {
        union {
                rte_be32_t u32;                 /**< 4B common header in BE */
                struct {
#if RTE_BYTE_ORDER == RTE_LITTLE_ENDIAN
                        uint16_t c:1;           /**< Concatenation Indicator */
                        uint16_t res:3;         /**< Reserved */
                        uint16_t revision:4;    /**< Protocol Revision */
                        uint16_t type:8;        /**< Message Type */
#elif RTE_BYTE_ORDER == RTE_BIG_ENDIAN
                        uint16_t revision:4;    /**< Protocol Revision */
                        uint16_t res:3;         /**< Reserved */
                        uint16_t c:1;           /**< Concatenation Indicator */
                        uint16_t type:8;        /**< Message Type */
#endif
                        rte_be16_t size;        /**< Payload Size */
                };
        };
};


The assignment in flow_dv_validate can also be simple:

                        .common = {
                                .u32 =
                                RTE_BE32(((const struct rte_ecpri_common_hdr) {
                                        .type = 0xFF,
                                        }).u32),
                        },

New:

struct rte_ecpri_common_hdr common = { .type = 0xff };

Haiyue
