The block variant can be dropped, I'll use the TC_BLOCK/TC_DEV alternative which

I am not opposed to clsact qdisc setup if INGRESS/EGRESS is supplied (not sure
how others feel about it).
We could make direct_action mode default, and similarly choose prio
as 1 by default instead of letting the kernel do it. Then you can just pass in
NULL for bpf_tc_cls_opts and be close to what you're proposing. For protocol we
can choose ETH_P_ALL by default too if the user doesn't set it.
With these modifications, the equivalent would look like
bpf_tc_cls_attach(prog_fd, TC_DEV(ifindex, INGRESS), NULL, &id);
So as long as the user doesn't care about other details, they can just pass opts
as NULL.
WDYT?
