Subject: [PATCH net-next-2.6] filter: Add SKF_AD_QUEUE instruction
Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2009 19:10:46 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4AD8A916.3060807@gmail.com> (raw)
It can help being able to filter packets on their queue_mapping.
If filter performance is not good, we could add a "numqueue" field
in struct packet_type, so that netif_nit_deliver() and other functions
can directly ignore packets with not expected queue number.
Lets experiment this simple filter extension first.
