+/**
+ * @file
+ * RTE Pipeline Table Actions
+ *
+ * This API provides a common set of actions for pipeline tables to speed up
+ * application development.
+ *
+ * Each match-action rule added to a pipeline table has associated data that
+ * stores the action context. This data is input to the table action handler
+ * called for every input packet that hits the rule as part of the table lookup
+ * during the pipeline execution. The pipeline library allows the user to define
+ * his own table actions by providing customized table action handlers (table
+ * lookup) and complete freedom of setting the rules and their data (table rule
+ * add/delete). While the user can still follow this process, this API is
+ * intended to provide a quicker development alternative for a set of predefined
+ * actions.
+ *
+ * The typical steps to use this API are:
+ * - Define a table action profile. This is a configuration template that can
+ * potentially be shared by multiple tables from the same or different
+ * pipelines, with different tables from the same pipeline likely to use
+ * different action profiles. For every table using a given action profile,
+ * the profile defines the set of actions and the action configuration to be
+ * implemented for all the table rules. API functions:
+ * rte_table_action_profile_create(),
+ * rte_table_action_profile_action_register(),
+ * rte_table_action_profile_freeze().
+ *
+ * - Instantiate the table action profile to create table action objects. Each
+ * pipeline table has its own table action object. API functions:
+ * rte_table_action_create().
+ *
+ * - Use the table action object to generate the pipeline table action handlers
+ * (invoked by the pipeline table lookup operation). API functions:
+ * rte_table_action_table_params_get().
+ *
+ * - Use the table action object to generate the rule data (for the pipeline
+ * table rule add operation) based on given action parameters. API functions:
+ * rte_table_action_apply().
+ *
+ * - Use the table action object to read action data (e.g. stats counters) for
+ * any given rule. API functions: rte_table_action_XYZ_read().
+ *
+ * @warning
+ * @b EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice
