Hello Aijun.

No update to rfc8754 is necessary. Rfc8754 was written so new sids can be 
defined in other documents independently.

section 4.3.1 says:

This document and section define a single SRv6 SID.  Future documents
   may define additional SRv6 SIDs.  In such a case, the entire content
   of this section will be defined in that document.


Thanks

Subject: About the upper layer header processing in RFC8754(SRH)

Hi, Folks:
RFC8754(SRH) section 
4.3.1.2(https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8754#section-4.3.1.2) describes the 
process of upper layer header as the followings:
IF (Upper-layer Header is IPv4 or IPv6) and
       local configuration permits {
     Perform IPv6 decapsulation
     Resubmit the decapsulated packet to the IPv4 or IPv6 module
   }
   ELSE {
   ……
}
And in network programming draft section 
9.1(https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-spring-srv6-network-programming-15#section-9.1),
 one new Ethernet Next Header Type(143) is proposed.

Although the detail process of this new next header are described in the 
network program draft,  does it need to update the section 4.3.1.2 of RFC8754 
to reflect the process of new header type(143)?

Best Regards
