As multiple places EOPNOTSUPP and EINVAL is returned from driver
it becomes difficult to understand the reason only with error code.
With the netlink extack message exact reason will be known and will
aid in debugging.

to be consistent with the messages here this should probably
be "Match on frag first/later is not supported"

this is a mistake. csum_offload_supported() already set informative
msg and you override it.

in parse_tc_fdb_actions you added a string "in FDB action" so here use
"in NIC action" to be consistent (i.e. action vs actions)

actions_match_supported() set a msg. so here you override it with
a generic "action match not supported".

it's not the vlad id that is not supported but the total of vlans used.

why the additional "requested" ? we dont have that in any other msgs.
also instead of ESWITCH use E-Switch. though not sure if even needed.

this is not the first vlan push. if you intended to distinguish between
the vlan push msgs. then here it's vlan push action not supported for
vlan depth > 1.

this is the normal vlan push action. so just vlan push action not
supported.

i dont understand the meaning of the msg. non-zero value not set.
Did you mean zero tunnel was set ?
Maybe use "Zero tunnel attributes is not supported".
Not sure we can get here unless there was a bug from flower.

can you add "is" as ".. is not supported"?

also, can you submit this patch to net-next and not net please?
it's not really fixing an issue and will help avoid conflicts with
changes we plan on this file.
thanks

Sure. I will submit it to net-next. I checked now and net-next is closed 
it says (http://vger.kernel.org/~davem/net-next.html). 
I will wait for it to be open and then submit there.

There is no need for capital letter in action. just "Flow action .."

There is no need for capital first letter action.
also the msg is about hw stats type so a better msg would be:
"Flow action HW stats type is not supported"

hi

the changelog is not needed as part of the commit msg.
it will have no meaning after merging.
the changelog should be here after the three dashes.
everything else looks ok to me but can you move the changelog to

thanks
