You're trying to refer to struct rte_flow_action_rss level definition
when values are chosen, but I think it is
inaccurate. Primary definition of the level==0 is PMD default,
not inner. Definition says that typically it is the innermost
encapsulation level RSS can be performed on according to PMD
and device capabilities. But it is secondary, primary
definition is "PMD default". Basically unspecified by the
caller (structure memset to 0) results in default behaviour.

Level equal to 2 is the first after the outermost inner level.
Level equal to 3 is the second after the outermost inner level
and so on.
If we really try to follow level definition from
rte_flow_action_rss, the problem is that these defines
are used to define RSS hashing capabilities in
dev_info.flow_type_rss_offloads. Support for level
up to 3 levels, does not mean that we can hash on any,
it could be either outermost or innermost level, but
not the middle level, if 3 levels are present.
Or just innermost recognized: either the first one
if no tunnels recognized, the second if two levels
are recognized, or the third one if three levels are
recognized.
Sorry, that I'm not proposing any solution right now.
Just need more time to thing about it.
You're welcome to try to cover these requirements.
