Hi Team members,

We are trying to experiment the TC qdisc behaviour with hw-offload 
enabled(Kernel offload using TC). Need clarification on below queries.


  1.  As part of HW Offload being enabled on OVS (using ovs-vsctl set 
Open_vSwitch . other_config:hw-offload=true), we are observing that the TC 
INGRESS QDISC is always getting created by OVS on addition of tap to bridge. 
Please can you help us in understanding why this is being added to all the 
ports which are participating in the bridge ? Our understanding is that virtual 
port like tap won’t be participate in HW offload.
  2.  We also wanted to understand the reason behind keeping the  TC INGRESS 
QDISC creation as Exclusive flag. We are trying to supplement this with another 
qdisc (tc qdisc add dev tap0 clsact)  but the creation itself is failing since 
the current INGRESS qdisc is kept with Exclusivity flag turned on.

Thanks in advance,
Rama Chaitanya
