The flower filter matches flows to the set of keys specified and
assigns an arbitrarily chosen class ID to packets belonging to them.
Additionally (or alternatively) an action from the generic action
framework may be called.
action ACTION_SPEC
Apply an action from the generic actions framework on matching
packets.
classid CLASSID
Specify a class to pass matching packets on to. CLASSID is in
the form X:Y, while X and Y are interpreted as numbers in
hexadecimal format.
hw_tc TCID
Specify a hardware traffic class to pass matching packets on
to. TCID is in the range 0 through 15.
indev ifname
Match on incoming interface name. Obviously this makes sense
only for forwarded flows. ifname is the name of an interface
which must exist at the time of tc invocation.
skip_sw
Do not process filter by software. If hardware has no offload
support for this filter, or TC offload is not enabled for the
interface, operation will fail.
skip_hw
Do not process filter by hardware.
dst_mac MASKED_LLADDR
src_mac MASKED_LLADDR
Match on source or destination MAC address. A mask may be
optionally provided to limit the bits of the address which are
matched. A mask is provided by following the address with a
slash and then the mask. It may be provided in LLADDR format,
in which case it is a bitwise mask, or as a number of high
bits to match. If the mask is missing then a match on all bits
is assumed.
vlan_id VID
Match on vlan tag id. VID is an unsigned 12bit value in
decimal format.
vlan_prio PRIORITY
Match on vlan tag priority. PRIORITY is an unsigned 3bit
value in decimal format.
vlan_ethtype VLAN_ETH_TYPE
Match on layer three protocol. VLAN_ETH_TYPE may be either
ipv4, ipv6 or an unsigned 16bit value in hexadecimal format.
mpls_label LABEL
Match the label id in the outermost MPLS label stack entry.
LABEL is an unsigned 20 bit value in decimal format.
mpls_tc TC
Match on the MPLS TC field, which is typically used for packet
priority, in the outermost MPLS label stack entry. TC is an
unsigned 3 bit value in decimal format.
mpls_bos BOS
Match on the MPLS Bottom Of Stack field in the outermost MPLS
label stack entry. BOS is a 1 bit value in decimal format.
mpls_ttl TTL
Match on the MPLS Time To Live field in the outermost MPLS
label stack entry. TTL is an unsigned 8 bit value in decimal
format.
ip_proto IP_PROTO
Match on layer four protocol. IP_PROTO may be tcp, udp, sctp,
icmp, icmpv6 or an unsigned 8bit value in hexadecimal format.
ip_tos MASKED_IP_TOS
Match on ipv4 TOS or ipv6 traffic-class - eight bits in
hexadecimal format. A mask may be optionally provided to
limit the bits which are matched. A mask is provided by
following the value with a slash and then the mask. If the
mask is missing then a match on all bits is assumed.
ip_ttl MASKED_IP_TTL
Match on ipv4 TTL or ipv6 hop-limit - eight bits value in
decimal or hexadecimal format. A mask may be optionally
provided to limit the bits which are matched. Same logic is
used for the mask as with matching on ip_tos.
dst_ip PREFIX
src_ip PREFIX
Match on source or destination IP address. PREFIX must be a
valid IPv4 or IPv6 address, depending on the protocol option
to tc filter, optionally followed by a slash and the prefix
length. If the prefix is missing, tc assumes a full-length
host match.
dst_port NUMBER
src_port NUMBER
Match on layer 4 protocol source or destination port number.
Only available for ip_proto values udp, tcp and sctp which
have to be specified in beforehand.
tcp_flags MASKED_TCP_FLAGS
Match on TCP flags represented as 12bit bitfield in in
hexadecimal format. A mask may be optionally provided to
limit the bits which are matched. A mask is provided by
following the value with a slash and then the mask. If the
mask is missing then a match on all bits is assumed.
type MASKED_TYPE
code MASKED_CODE
Match on ICMP type or code. A mask may be optionally provided
to limit the bits of the address which are matched. A mask is
provided by following the address with a slash and then the
mask. The mask must be as a number which represents a bitwise
mask If the mask is missing then a match on all bits is
assumed. Only available for ip_proto values icmp and icmpv6
which have to be specified in beforehand.
arp_tip IPV4_PREFIX
arp_sip IPV4_PREFIX
Match on ARP or RARP sender or target IP address. IPV4_PREFIX
must be a valid IPv4 address optionally followed by a slash
and the prefix length. If the prefix is missing, tc assumes a
full-length host match.
arp_op ARP_OP
Match on ARP or RARP operation. ARP_OP may be request, reply
or an integer value 0, 1 or 2. A mask may be optionally
provided to limit the bits of the operation which are matched.
A mask is provided by following the address with a slash and
then the mask. It may be provided as an unsigned 8 bit value
representing a bitwise mask. If the mask is missing then a
match on all bits is assumed.
arp_sha MASKED_LLADDR
arp_tha MASKED_LLADDR
Match on ARP or RARP sender or target MAC address. A mask may
be optionally provided to limit the bits of the address which
are matched. A mask is provided by following the address with
a slash and then the mask. It may be provided in LLADDR
format, in which case it is a bitwise mask, or as a number of
high bits to match. If the mask is missing then a match on all
bits is assumed.
enc_key_id NUMBER
enc_dst_ip PREFIX
enc_src_ip PREFIX
enc_dst_port NUMBER
Match on IP tunnel metadata. Key id NUMBER is a 32 bit tunnel
key id (e.g. VNI for VXLAN tunnel). PREFIX must be a valid
IPv4 or IPv6 address optionally followed by a slash and the
prefix length. If the prefix is missing, tc assumes a full-
length host match. Dst port NUMBER is a 16 bit UDP dst port.
ip_flags IP_FLAGS
IP_FLAGS may be either frag or nofrag to match on fragmented
packets or not respectively.
As stated above where applicable, matches of a certain layer
implicitly depend on the matches of the next lower layer. Precisely,
layer one and two matches (indev, dst_mac and src_mac) have no
dependency, MPLS and layer three matches (mpls_label, mpls_tc,
mpls_bos, mpls_ttl, ip_proto, dst_ip, src_ip, arp_tip, arp_sip,
arp_op, arp_tha, arp_sha and ip_flags) depend on the protocol option
of tc filter, layer four port matches (dst_port and src_port) depend
on ip_proto being set to tcp, udp or sctp, and finally ICMP matches
(code and type) depend on ip_proto being set to icmp or icmpv6.
There can be only used one mask per one prio. If user needs to
specify different mask, he has to use different prio.
