Re: [PATCH v6 net-next 00/12] allow user to offload tc action to net device

Hi,

I believe these patches are functionally ready. There is still some
nitpick.

On the general patch: Why not Cc the maintainers for the drivers you
are touching? I know the changes seem trivial but it is good courtesy.
 From your logs driver files touched:

    drivers/net/dsa/sja1105/sja1105_flower.c      |   2 +-

    .../ethernet/netronome/nfp/flower/offload.c   |   3 +

Also - shouldnt the history be all inclusive? You obly have V5 here.
Maybe with lore or patchwork this is no longer necessary and all
history can be retrieved in the future?

Individual patch comments to follow.

cheers,

Allow use of flow_indr_dev_register/flow_indr_dev_setup_offload to offload
tc actions independent of flows.

The motivation for this work is to prepare for using TC police action
instances to provide hardware offload of OVS metering feature - which calls
for policers that may be used by multiple flows and whose lifecycle is
independent of any flows that use them.

This patch includes basic changes to offload drivers to return EOPNOTSUPP
if this feature is used - it is not yet supported by any driver.

Tc cli command to offload and quote an action:

  # tc qdisc del dev $DEV ingress && sleep 1 || true
  # tc actions delete action police index 200 || true

  # tc qdisc add dev $DEV ingress
  # tc qdisc show dev $DEV ingress

  # tc actions add action police rate 100mbit burst 10000k index 200 skip_sw
  # tc -s -d actions list action police
  total acts 1
