From aac4daa8941ea6566563ac001e9e5d4e54a674e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vladimir Oltean Date: Wed, 28 Sep 2022 12:51:57 +0300 Subject: net/sched: query offload capabilities through ndo_setup_tc() When adding optional new features to Qdisc offloads, existing drivers must reject the new configuration until they are coded up to act on it. Since modifying all drivers in lockstep with the changes in the Qdisc can create problems of its own, it would be nice if there existed an automatic opt-in mechanism for offloading optional features. Jakub proposes that we multiplex one more kind of call through ndo_setup_tc(): one where the driver populates a Qdisc-specific capability structure. First user will be taprio in further changes. Here we are introducing the definitions for the base functionality.
