Re: [PATCH net-next] docs: networking: dpaa2: add documentation for the switch driver

Are these requirements tested? Will the driver fail probe if they are
not met?
Yes, they are tested.

If the DPSW object configuration does not meet the requirements, the
driver will error out on probe with a message explictly saying what
is happening.
Good. Maybe reference that here, so somebody googling the error
message lands on this document.
On the other hand, I think this section might give too much details on
the actual implementation (I took it from the commit message of the
patch adding the support). Might as well just remove it and add the
example.

All that I was trying to say is that the filters will not be added in
the ACL table with the explicit priority specified by the user but
rather with one determined based on all the rules currently present in
the table.
Nothing is unusual in the usage, the order in which the rules are
executed will be respected.
So if it is an implementation detail, it probably is not relevant
here.
