Sorry, may be I'm missing something, but after reading previous
discussion I have a feeling that update could be queried data
dependent. However, I don't understand how it could be possible
with API below. Just my misunderstanding?
The goal of `rte_flow_action_handle_query_update()` is to execute query and
update actions atomically.
The function guaranties that action state will not change by any event before
both update and query complete.
If the function was called with the ` RTE_FLOW_QU_QUERY_FIRST ` `mode`
argument, then update execution can depend
on query result. That's up to query format, PMD implementation and hardware
capabilities.
I hope that answered your question.
Sorry, I'm still confused. Could you explain a bit more,
please. How update could depend on query result?
Caller already specified update structure...
