[net-next PATCH v2 0/6] net sched: Fix broken late binding of actions

[Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com>]

From: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com>

Some actions were broken in allowing for late binding of actions.
Late binding workflow is as follows:
a) create an action and provide all necessary parameters for it
Optionally provide an index or let the kernel give you one.
Example:
sudo tc actions add action police rate 1kbit burst 90k drop index 1

b) later on bind to the pre-created action from a filter definition
by merely specifying the index.
Example:
sudo tc filter add dev lo parent ffff: protocol ip prio 8 \
u32 match ip src 127.0.0.8/32 flowid 1:8 action police index 1


Jamal Hadi Salim (6):
  tc vlan action fix late binding
  tc ipt action fix late binding
  tc mirred action fix late binding
  tc simple action fix late binding
  tc skbedit action fix late binding
  tc ife action fix late binding
