    net: mscc: ocelot: restrict tc-trap actions to VCAP IS2 lookup 0 · 477d2b91
    Vladimir Oltean authored
    Once the CPU port was added to the destination port mask of a packet, it
    can never be cleared, so even packets marked as dropped by the MASK_MODE
    of a VCAP IS2 filter will still reach it. This is why we need the
    OCELOT_POLICER_DISCARD to "kill dropped packets dead" and make software
    stop seeing them.
    
    We disallow policer rules from being put on any other chain than the one
    for the first lookup, but we don't do this for "drop" rules, although we
    should. This change is merely ascertaining that the rules dont't
    (completely) work and letting the user know.
    
    The blamed commit is the one that introduced the multi-chain architecture
    in ocelot. Prior to that, we should have always offloaded the filters to
    VCAP IS2 lookup 0, where they did work.
