-Network classifier cgroup
-=========================
-
-The Network classifier cgroup provides an interface to
-tag network packets with a class identifier (classid).
-
-The Traffic Controller (tc) can be used to assign
-different priorities to packets from different cgroups.
-Also, Netfilter (iptables) can use this tag to perform
-actions on such packets.
-
-Creating a net_cls cgroups instance creates a net_cls.classid file.
-This net_cls.classid value is initialized to 0.
-
-You can write hexadecimal values to net_cls.classid; the format for these
-values is 0xAAAABBBB; AAAA is the major handle number and BBBB
-is the minor handle number.
-Reading net_cls.classid yields a decimal result.
-
-Example::
-
- mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/net_cls
- mount -t cgroup -onet_cls net_cls /sys/fs/cgroup/net_cls
- mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/net_cls/0
- echo 0x100001 > /sys/fs/cgroup/net_cls/0/net_cls.classid
-
-- setting a 10:1 handle::
-
- cat /sys/fs/cgroup/net_cls/0/net_cls.classid
- 1048577
-
-- configuring tc::
-
- tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 10: htb
- tc class add dev eth0 parent 10: classid 10:1 htb rate 40mbit
-
-- creating traffic class 10:1::
-
- tc filter add dev eth0 parent 10: protocol ip prio 10 handle 1: cgroup
-
-configuring iptables, basic example::
-
- iptables -A OUTPUT -m cgroup ! --cgroup 0x100001 -j DROP
