 ===========
 
-Change packet firewall :arg:`mark` for the client side connection.
+Change the packet firewall :arg:`mark` for the client side connection. The
+entire firewall mark is replaced with :arg:`mark`, which is interpreted as a
+32-bit unsigned bit pattern.
+
+Returns :const:`TS_SUCCESS` when the client connection was modified, and
+:const:`TS_ERROR` when there is no client connection to modify.
+
+.. note::
+
+   The firewall mark is only honored on platforms whose OS supports it,
+   specifically Linux via ``SO_MARK``. On platforms without ``SO_MARK`` support
+   the call still returns :const:`TS_SUCCESS` when a client connection is
+   present, but setting the mark has no effect at the OS layer (it is a safe
+   no-op).

Review Comment:
   This doc says TS_SUCCESS means the client connection was modified, but the 
current implementation can return TS_SUCCESS even when SO_MARK isn’t enabled 
for the connection (missing PACKET_MARK flag) or when setsockopt(SO_MARK) fails 
(e.g. insufficient privileges). Since this PR is improving documentation, it 
should describe these prerequisites/limitations so users can interpret 
TS_SUCCESS correctly.

Review Comment:
   The header comment implies TS_SUCCESS means the firewall mark was 
applied/connection modified, but the implementation only checks that a client 
NetVConnection exists and then calls apply_options() without surfacing whether 
SO_MARK was enabled/applied (or whether setsockopt succeeded). The docs should 
clarify the prerequisites (PACKET_MARK enabled) and that OS-layer application 
failures aren’t currently reported.

Review Comment:
   The test sets `proxy.config.net.sock_option_flag`, but ATS only defines 
`proxy.config.net.sock_option_flag_in` / `_out`. As a result, PACKET_MARK 
(0x10) likely won’t be enabled for the client connection, so neither the seeded 
mark nor TSHttpTxnClientPacketMarkSet will be applied at the OS layer and the 
assertion can fail.
