NAME
       mlx5dv_create_flow_action_packet_reformat - Flow action reformat packet
       for mlx5 provider

SYNOPSIS
              #include <infiniband/mlx5dv.h>

              struct ibv_flow_action *
              mlx5dv_create_flow_action_packet_reformat(struct ibv_context *ctx,
                                    size_t data_sz,
                                    void *data,
                                    enum mlx5dv_flow_action_packet_reformat_type reformat_type,
                                    enum mlx5dv_flow_table_type ft_type)

DESCRIPTION
       Create a packet reformat flow steering action.  It allows
       adding/removing packet headers.

ARGUMENTS
       ctx

              RDMA device context to create the action on.

       data_sz

              The size of *data* buffer.

       data

              A buffer which contains headers in case the actions requires them.

       reformat_type

              The reformat type to be create. Use enum mlx5dv_flow_action_packet_reformat_type.

              MLX5DV_FLOW_ACTION_PACKET_REFORMAT_TYPE_L2_TUNNEL_TO_L2: Decap a
              generic L2 tunneled packet up to inner L2.

              MLX5DV_FLOW_ACTION_PACKET_REFORMAT_TYPE_L2_TO_L2_TUNNEL: Generic
              encap, data should contain the encapsulating headers.

              MLX5DV_FLOW_ACTION_PACKET_REFORMAT_TYPE_L3_TUNNEL_TO_L2: Will do
              decap where the inner packet starts from L3.  data should be MAC
              or MAC + vlan (14 or 18 bytes) to be appended to the packet
              after the decap action.

              MLX5DV_FLOW_ACTION_PACKET_REFORMAT_TYPE_L2_TO_L3_TUNNEL: Will do
              encap where is L2 of the original packet will not be included.
              data should be the encapsulating header.

       ft_type

              It defines the flow table type to which the packet reformat action
              will be attached.

RETURN VALUE
       Upon success mlx5dv_create_flow_action_packet_reformat will return a
       new struct ibv_flow_action object, on error NULL will be returned and
       errno will be set.
