French Administration has written a guideline that defines additional
DSCP values for use in its networks.
Add new CAKE diffserv tables to take those new values into account
and add CONFIG_NET_SCH_CAKE_DGSIC to select those tables instead of
the default ones.
The document is available at
https://www.bo.sga.defense.gouv.fr/texte/signe/264219/N%C2%B0%2036/DEF/DGSIC.pdf

By the way it doesn't really change meaning. Just enhances it indeed.
Because they are not changing the meaning of existing DSCP codes, just
adding new ones.

No I have not. In fact I'm just discovering the subject after some
people told me "we are contractually required to apply this guideline,
please make sure Linux kernel supports it".
I'll give 'fwmark' and/or skb->priority a try. Is there any
Documentation on that somewhere ?
Thanks

...however I don't think we should be including something this
special-purpose into the qdisc kernel code, and certainly we shouldn't
have a config option that changes the meaning of the existing diffserv
keywords!
Rather, this is something that is best specified from userspace; and in
fact Cake already has no less than two different ways to do this: the
'fwmark' option, and setting the skb->priority field. Have you tried
using those?

Ah, OK, but then it's even easier, you can just add rules for the new
values using the userspace options and let cake select the rest using
the existing code.

Both are documented in the tc-cake man page.
