Yes I did, that helped a lot with the eBPF code! I’ll consult it for LPM trie usage, which will have to be ifdef’d out though for pre-4.11 kernels. tc-users is similar really but I desired a few things (for FreeNet): - MAC and IPv6 support - to map arbitrary usernames to the least used class id - to minimize the number of map changes when there are a lot of users to sync (not done yet) - flow fairness (though given your new info below, I think that just got way easier) - to write the userspace utility in C, for practice >> - With the new major/minor ID distinction, I’d probably use major for >> the user and minor for the flow hash? > > Yes.

Good one, I wonder, because I see it’s not just “new flow”, I seem to see it called again on the same flow if there’s a pause in packets on it for “some time”.
