=========================================================
* **Added generic flow API (rte_flow).**
This API provides a generic means to configure hardware to match specific
ingress or egress traffic, alter its fate and query related counters
according to any number of user-defined rules.
It is slightly higher-level than the legacy filtering framework which it
encompasses and supersedes (including all functions and filter types) in
order to expose a single interface with an unambiguous behavior that is
common to all poll-mode drivers (PMDs).
See the :ref:`Generic flow API <Generic_flow_API>` documentation for more
information.
