I shouldve read the thread backward. My earlier email was asking
similar question to Roman.

Hi Roman,
I considered it, but didn't find good way to implement my change with
TCA_ROOT_FLAGS. I needed some flags to be per-action for following
reasons:
1. Not all actions support the flag (only implemented for hw offloaded
actions).

2. TCA_ROOT_FLAGS is act API specific and I need this to work when
actions are created when actions are created with filters through cls
API. I guess I could have changed tcf_action_init_1() to require
having TCA_ROOT_FLAGS before actions attribute and then pass obtained
value to act_ops->init() as additional argument, but it sounds more
complex and ugly.
I really shouldve read the thread backwards;->
The question is if this uglier than introducing a new TLV for every
action.
cheers,
jamal
