It is supposed to be in past tense. Reworded as follow: + Added packet mode in the meter profile parameters data structures + to support metering traffic by packet per second (PPS), + in addition to the initial bytes per second (BPS) mode (value 0). > + > +* **Updated MLX5 driver.** > + > + * Added support for meter profile packet per second mode (packet_mode). The mlx5 implementation is not part of this patch. This sentence will be removed. Please add a similar line in the mlx5 patch.
