[Stephen Hemminger]

gen_replace_estimator can return errors, but they were being ignored.

[PATCH 2/2] tc: policing requires a rate estimator

[Stephen Hemminger]

Found that while trying average rate policing, it was possible to
request average rate policing without a rate estimator. This results
in no policing which is harmless but incorrect.

Since policing could be setup in two steps, need to check
in the kernel.

At this point we've already made changes to the class, so
returning an error without undoing them is wrong.

I'd suggest to move the estimator replacement up a bit, the
other changes can't fail.

There's also gen_new_estimator() that should be treated
similary for consistency.

This leaks the R_tab reference.

The previous patch added a put at the failure: tag.

The functions gen_new_estimator and gen_replace_estimator can return errors,
but they were being ignored.

This appears to have the same problem as in HFSC unless I missed more
code movement - changes to the qdisc have already been performed.

There's a gen_new_estimator() a few lines below that is still unchecked.

The remaining ones look fine.

That is not fixable since both change and replace_estimator are non-unwindable,
and either one could fail. Could split checking and initialization out of gen_new_estimator,
but is it worth it??

Probably not. I'd suggest to not return the estimator error in
this spot instead.

[PATCH] pkt_sched: gen_estimator: Optimize gen_estimator_active()

[Jarek Poplawski]

pkt_sched: gen_estimator: Optimize gen_estimator_active()

Since all other gen_estimator functions use bstats and rate_est params
together, and searching for them is optimized now, let's use this also
in gen_estimator_active(). The return type of gen_estimator_active()
is changed to bool, and gen_find_node() parameters to const, btw.

In tcf_act_police_locate() a check for ACT_P_CREATED is added before
calling gen_estimator_active().
