Jiri Pirko 7960d1daf2 net: sched: use block index as a handle instead of qdisc when block is shared
As the tcm_ifindex with value TCM_IFINDEX_MAGIC_BLOCK is invalid ifindex,
use it to indicate that we work with block, instead of qdisc.
So if tcm_ifindex is set to TCM_IFINDEX_MAGIC_BLOCK, tcm_parent is used
to carry block_index.

If the block is set to be shared between at least 2 qdiscs, it is
forbidden to use the qdisc handle to add/delete filters. In that case,
userspace has to pass block_index.

Also, for dump of the filters, in case the block is shared in between at
least 2 qdiscs, the each filter is dumped with tcm_ifindex value
TCM_IFINDEX_MAGIC_BLOCK and tcm_parent set to block_index. That gives
the user clear indication, that the filter belongs to a shared block
and not only to one qdisc under which it is dumped.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
