* They fall in three categories:
*
- * - Terminating actions (such as QUEUE, DROP, RSS, PF, VF) that prevent
- * processing matched packets by subsequent flow rules, unless overridden
- * with PASSTHRU.
- *
- * - Non terminating actions (PASSTHRU, DUP) that leave matched packets up
- * for additional processing by subsequent flow rules.
+ * - Actions that modify the fate of matching traffic, for instance by

- * - Other non terminating meta actions that do not affect the fate of
- * packets (END, VOID, MARK, FLAG, COUNT).
+ * - Actions that modify matching traffic contents or its properties. This

+ * marks.
*
- * When several actions are combined in a flow rule, they should all have

*
- * Only the last action of a given type is taken into account. PMDs still
- * perform error checking on the entire list.

+ * fate kind results in undefined behavior. This applies to both ingress and
