Hi Yuying, Can you please describe the impact of the change more? Was the usage of the priority wrong either in pipeline or non-pipeline mode previously? If so this is a fix patch and we need fixes line, and consider backporting options. And what is the impact to the user, if we don't have this patch, what user observes? And what is changed for user after this patch? > Signed-off-by: Yuying Zhang <yuying.zh...@intel.com> > --- > v3: > * Fix priority issue of FDIR in pipeline mode.
