Hi Andrew, Ori,

I can see 'RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SET_MAC_SRC' and many  other
marked as legacy and reference to
'RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_MODIFY_FIELD'.

What is the expectation from PMD developers for this?

User still can provide these legacy actions, right? So should PMD implement
both legacy and new ones?

 From my side, we trying to implement the basic offload in this DPDK release, 
and complete
the missing pieces in the next few DPDK releases.

The support of 'RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_MODIFY_FIELD' is in the very next project 
after
this series.

Sounds reasonable to me, but also I am not aware of the long term plan there, so I need input from Andrew and Ori.
