No problem.

So just looking at the data provided I am going to guess that IPv6 w/
UDP likely works without any issues and it is just going to be IPv4
that is the problem. When you compare the UDP setup from mine versus
yours it looks like for some reason somebody swapped around the input
bits for the L3 src and destination fields. I'm basing that on the
input set masks in the i40e_txrx.h header:
/* INPUT SET MASK for RSS, flow director, and flexible payload */
#define I40E_L3_SRC_SHIFT               47
#define I40E_L3_SRC_MASK                (0x3ULL << I40E_L3_SRC_SHIFT)
#define I40E_L3_V6_SRC_SHIFT            43
#define I40E_L3_V6_SRC_MASK             (0xFFULL << I40E_L3_V6_SRC_SHIFT)
#define I40E_L3_DST_SHIFT               35
#define I40E_L3_DST_MASK                (0x3ULL << I40E_L3_DST_SHIFT)
#define I40E_L3_V6_DST_SHIFT            35
#define I40E_L3_V6_DST_MASK             (0xFFULL << I40E_L3_V6_DST_SHIFT)
#define I40E_L4_SRC_SHIFT               34
#define I40E_L4_SRC_MASK                (0x1ULL << I40E_L4_SRC_SHIFT)
#define I40E_L4_DST_SHIFT               33
#define I40E_L4_DST_MASK                (0x1ULL << I40E_L4_DST_SHIFT)
#define I40E_VERIFY_TAG_SHIFT           31
#define I40E_VERIFY_TAG_MASK            (0x3ULL << I40E_VERIFY_TAG_SHIFT)

The easiest way to verify would be to rewrite the registers for
flow_type 29, 30, and 31 to match the value that I had shown earlier
from my dump:
[  294.687087] i40e 0000:81:00.1: flow_type: 31 input_mask:0x0001801e00000000

I will take a look at putting together a patch that can be tested to
verify if this is actually the issue tomorrow.

Thanks.
