Setting 'CONFIG_NET_ACT_POLICE=m' meets demands of Qos,one of features of openswitch. This is a new police-mechanism called action-extension. It can build act_police.c into kernel as type of module. If you want to do traffic policing, a kind of action-extension, i.e. strict bandwidth limiting. This action replaces the existing policing module. User can set action-extension at userspace by tool of openvswitch
If user set action-extension, exts->actions[i] will be called, and finally tcf_police() defined at act_police.c will be called.
