> HWS matcher resides under the table object, each table can have multiple
> chained matcher with different attributes. Each matcher represents a
> combination of match and action templates.
> Each matcher can contain multiple configurations based on the templates.
> Packets are steered from the table to the matcher and from there to other
> objects. The matcher allows efficent HW packet field matching and action
> execution based on the configuration done to it.
