At this time inexact policies are all searched in-order until the first match is found. After removal of the flow cache, this resolution has to be performed for every packetm resulting in major slowdown when number of inexact policies is high. This adds infrastructure to later sort inexact policies into a tree. This only introduces a single class: any:any. Next patch will add a search tree to pre-sort policies that have a fixed daddr/prefixlen, so in this patch the any:any class will still be used for all policies.

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.
