+ * Parse an Ethernet packet to get its packet type.
+ *
+ * This function parses the network headers in mbuf data and return its
+ * packet type.
+ *
+ * If it is provided by the user, it also fills a rte_net_hdr_lens
+ * structure that contains the lengths of the parsed network
+ * headers. Each length field is valid only if the associated packet
+ * type is set. For instance, hdr_lens->l2_len is valid only if
+ * (retval & RTE_PTYPE_L2_MASK) != RTE_PTYPE_UNKNOWN.
+ *
+ * Supported packet types are:
+ * L2: Ether, Vlan, QinQ
+ * L3: IPv4, IPv6
+ * L4: TCP, UDP, SCTP
+ * Tunnels: IPv4, IPv6, Gre, Nvgre
+ *
+ * @param m
+ * The packet mbuf to be parsed.
+ * @param hdr_lens
+ * A pointer to a structure where the header lengths will be returned,
+ * or NULL.
+ * @param layers
+ * List of layers to parse. The function will stop at the first
+ * empty layer. Examples:
+ * - To parse all known layers, use RTE_PTYPE_ALL_MASK.
+ * - To parse only L2 and L3, use RTE_PTYPE_L2_MASK | RTE_PTYPE_L3_MASK
+ * @return
+ * The packet type of the packet.
