Hi Ori, and all,
For RSS flow rule, pattern item types and RSS types in action
are an inclusive relationship, and RSS types contain pattern item
types.
I disagree with the statement. We can redirect various packets,
but apply RSS on subset only. Everything else goes to the first
queue (first entry in the redirection table in fact).
Is it necessary to set pattern item types when specify RSS
types to create a rule?
No, it is not strictly required. It depends on what you want.
How should the user set and how should the
driver do?
Pattern and action are not strictly related in the case of RSS.
Pattern defines on which packets the rule is applied.
Action defines what the rule does. If hash function is not
applicable to a packet, e.g. ARP packet and ipv4-tcp hash function,
the hash is 0 and goes via redirection table entry 0.

Looking forward to your reply.

Hi all,
From following testpmd command:
'flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / tcp / end actions rss
types ipv4-tcp l3-src-only end queues end / end'
and
"flow create 0 ingress pattern end actions rss types ipv4-tcp
l3-src-only end queues end / end"
I have some confusions about rte_flow RSS rule:
1> Do pattern item types need to set when configure rte_flow RSS rule?
2> Does the driver need to check and process the pattern? (After all,
the RSS types in actions alreadly contain all RSS offload types.)
Have someone explains it?

Huisong
