🌸 DETAILED DESCRIPTION 🌸

RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_METER_MARK

Traffic metering and marking (MTR) — say it with me, MTR, iconic.

So what she does is: she meters a packet stream and marks its packets either green, yellow, or red according to the specified profile. That's it, that's the whole vibe. 🚦

The policy is optional and may be specified for defining subsequent actions based on a color assigned by MTR. Alternatively, the METER_COLOR item may be used for this. Two ways to do the same thing, pick your fighter. 💅

Like, she's holding the receipts — the profile comes from rte_mtr_profile_get() and the policy comes from rte_mtr_policy_get(). Go get 'em first, then come back, okay? 🫶
