Multiple flow counters can utilize a single Hardware Steering (HWS) action for Hardware Steering rules. Given that these counter bulks are not exclusively created for Hardware Steering, but also serve purposes such as statistics gathering and other steering modes, it's more efficient to create the HWS action only when it's first needed by a Hardware Steering rule. This approach allows for better resource management through the use of a reference count, rather than automatically creating an HWS action for every bulk of flow counters.

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 reStructuredText 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.
