Removing this policy should be fine. One of the points of commit (as explained in the commit message) a3d43c0d56f1 ("taprio: Add support adding an admin schedule") is that it removes support (it now returns "not supported") for schedules using the TCA_TAPRIO_ATTR_SCHED_SINGLE_ENTRY attribute (which were never used), the parsing of those types of schedules was the only user of this policy. > > I'm not applying this without at least a better and clear commit > message explaining why we shouldn't be using this policy any more. YueHaibing may use the text above in the commit message of a new spin of this patch if you think it's clear enough. Cheers, -- Vinicius
