Re: TC-pedit man page examples error

Hello Phil,

Thank you for taking my message. I have gotten a solution working so
feel free to ignore the rest of this email. By vanilla iproute2 do you
mean the latest package through the yum or apt repository? All I can
tell you is that in the example I gave the iproute2 package was the
latest one through the RHEL 7 yum repository. Otherwise I will need
clarification on what vanilla means. I attempted the above example
code on two other Ubuntu machines, one of which I can confirm is
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Unfortunately I am not at that machine right now so
I cannot give you the output. Both machines gave similar error
messages. The reason I emailed you via netdev was because the example
code I used was taken verbatim from the tc-pedit man page on my
machine. The man page also gave me email addresses to contact in case
an error was found with the man page, which is what I did. I did get
the code to work when using the latest version of iproute2, so I
assume the only practical solution is to manually install the latest
version of iproute2 or wait for the various distros of Linux to use
updated iproute2. I appreciate your help. Have a nice day.

To whom it may concern,
I recently attempted to use simple tc action pedit commands on the man
page and I ran into some errors. The following is some information
about my version of iproute and my machine:
----------------------------
the following is my iproute package information

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks
iproute-3.10.0-74.el7.x86_64

This mailing list is for upstream issues only. Can you reproduce the
problem with vanilla iproute2?

You are using RHEL7's iproute package, which has a number of known
issues in pedit action:

These are planned to be resolved for RHEL7.5, not sure when it will land
in CentOS.
