I would have loved it if user space had a say ;->
In the case of tc actions for example; the (table) index abides to the
following rules:
if user space specified one in rule insertion then {
if available, use the allowed entry {
} else if inuse {
if replace flag is set then {
replace
} else {
return error
}
} else {
grab the next available index
}
makes management from user space much simpler.
cheers,
