We have some (at least NIC) hardware folks on the list. Note: we could create an alias to PIPE and call it COUNT if it helps. And yes, in retrospect we should probably have separated out accounting from the actions in tc. It makes a lot of sense in s/w - and would work fine for modern hardware but when you dont have as many counters as actions it's a challenge. Same thing with policers/meters. cheers, jamal
