For qdisc's that support TC filters and set TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS,
notably fq_codel, it makes no sense to let packets bypass the TC
filters we setup in any scenario, otherwise our packets steering
policy could not be enforced.
This can be reproduced easily with the following script:
ip li add dev dummy0 type dummy
ifconfig dummy0 up
tc qd add dev dummy0 root fq_codel
tc filter add dev dummy0 parent 8001: protocol arp basic action mirred egress redirect dev lo
tc filter add dev dummy0 parent 8001: protocol ip basic action mirred egress redirect dev lo
ping -I dummy0 192.168.112.1
Without this patch, packets are sent directly to dummy0 without
hitting any of the filters. With this patch, packets are redirected
to loopback as expected.
This fix is not perfect, it only unsets the flag but does not set it back
because we have to save the information somewhere in the qdisc if we
really want that. Note, both fq_codel and sfq clear this flag in their
->bind_tcf() but this is clearly not sufficient when we don't use any
class ID.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
