+==============================
+Note: some of the error messages may be different.
 
-6. check the flow list::
+Subcase 1: can not create rule on vf 1
+--------------------------------------
+
+1. validate rule on vf 1::
+
+     testpmd> flow validate 1 ingress pattern eth dst is 68:05:ca:8d:ed:a8 / ipv4 src is 192.168.0.1 dst is 192.168.0.2 tos is 4 ttl is 3 / udp src is 25 dst is 23 / end actions vf id 1 / end
+
+   get the error message::
+
+     Failed to create parser engine.: Invalid argument
+
+2. list the rule::
 
      testpmd> flow list 1
 
    there is no rule listed.
 
+Subcase 2: unsupported patterns in os default
+---------------------------------------------
+
+1. load os default package and launch testpmd as step 3-8 in Prerequisites.
+
+2. validate unsupported patterns in os default::
+
+     testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth dst is 00:11:22:33:44:55 / pppoes seid is 3 / pppoe_proto_id is 0x0021 / end actions vf id 1 / end

+     Invalid input pattern: Invalid argument
+
+4. check the rule list::
+
+     testpmd> flow list 0
+
+   check the rule not exists in the list.
+
+Subcase 3: unsupported input set
+--------------------------------
+
+1. validate an nvgre rule with unsupported input set field [inner tos]::
+
+     testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 dst is 192.168.0.1 / nvgre tni is 2 / eth dst is 68:05:ca:8d:ed:a8 / ipv4 src is 192.168.1.2 dst is 192.168.1.3 tos is 4 / end actions vf id 1 / end

+
+2. check the rule list::
+
+     testpmd> flow list 0
+
+   check the rule not exists in the list.
+
+Subcase 4: void action
+----------------------
+
+1. validate a rule with void action::
+
+     testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp src is 25 dst is 23 / end actions end
+
+   Failed to create flow, report message::
+
+     NULL action.: Invalid argument
+
+2. check the flow list::
+
+     testpmd> flow list 0
+
+   check the rule not exists in the list.
+
+Subcase 5: unsupported action
+-----------------------------
+
+1. validate a rule with void action::

+
+   Failed to create flow, report message::
+
+     Invalid action type: Invalid argument
+
+2. check the flow list::
+
+     testpmd> flow list 0
+
+   check the rule not exists in the list.
+
+Subcase 6: void input set value
+-------------------------------
+
+1. validate a rule with void input set value::
+
+     testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end actions vf id 1 / end
+
+   get the error message::
+
+     Invalid input set: Invalid argument
+
+2. check the flow list::
+
+     testpmd> flow list 0
+
+   check the rule not exists in the list.
+
+Subcase 7: invalid vf id
+------------------------
+
+1. validate a rule with invalid vf id 5::
+
+     testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth dst is 68:05:ca:8d:ed:a8 / ipv4 src is 192.168.0.1 dst is 192.168.0.2 tos is 4 ttl is 3 / tcp src is 25 dst is 23 / end actions vf id 5 / end
+
+   get the error message::
+
+     Invalid vf id: Invalid argument
+
+3. check the rule list::
+
+     testpmd> flow list 0
+
+   check the rule not exists in the list.
+
+Subcase 8: long switch rule
+---------------------------
+
+1. validate a rule with input set length longer than 32 bytes::
+
+     testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 src is CDCD:910A:2222:5498:8475:1111:3900:1536 dst is CDCD:910A:2222:5498:8475:1111:3900:2022 tc is 3 / end actions vf id 1 / end
+
+   get the error message::
