Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/3] net: dsa: add dsa_mall_policer_tc_entry_type() helper
Date: Mon, 26 Jan 2026 14:13:30 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260126061340.757543-3-mmyangfl@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260126061340.757543-1-mmyangfl@gmail.com>

It has shown FLOW_ACTION_POLICE is not stable, and it's very likely that
options were added at drivers' request.

However, that also means .port_policer_add() would have to check the
parameters themselves. Giving that struct dsa_mall_policer_tc_entry is
not stable, adjusting the interface between the framework and drivers
would be a pain.

Introduce a helper to maximize forward compatibility. Drivers may use it
to recognize the pattern of tc entry reliably, and ensure all
newly-added options are set to 0 / their default values and do not break
the semantics.
