Hi Ivan, The multi-line block was not closed in brackets due to coding style.
Spec provides values to match (e.g. a given IPv4 address) in rte_flow rules. Incase of the flowing rte_flow rule, spec provides in mlx5_flow_dv_validate_item_aso_ct the conntrack state to be validated. The following is a valid rule and it should be offloaded. flow create 0 group 5 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / tcp / conntrack is 1 / end actions queue index 5 / end and the following is an invalid rule which should be rejected, as there is no conntract state corresponds to 10. flow create 0 group 5 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / tcp / conntrack is 10 / end actions queue index 5 / end Please check https://doc.dpdk.org/guides-24.07/prog_guide/rte_flow.html#pattern-item
