Hi Stephen:
I am trying to shorten mask, but flow rules s not working.in i40e NIC.

Please see i40e pmd code:
https://github.com/DPDK/dpdk/blob/v22.11/drivers/net/i40e/i40e_flow.c#L2036

It only determines that the mask is UINT16_MAX, and setting mask to other value 
seems no difference.

Why not create multiple rules each pointing at same action?
Or is mask so wide that you run out of rte_flow slots.
