Hello Jamal,
I'm trying to run tdc, but keep getting following error even on clean
branch without my patches:
Test d190: Add police action with maximum index
-----> teardown stage *** Could not execute: "$TC actions flush action mirred"
-----> teardown stage *** Error message: "RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument
We have an error flushing
"
-----> teardown stage *** Aborting test run.

accumulated output for this test:
RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

Command "action" is unknown, try "tc actions help".

I've updated both iproute2 and kernel to latest master and net-next
respectively, but error persists. Am I missing something? Maybe I should
you some specific "blessed" version of TC?
Thanks,
Vlad
