Hello,
is there some good documentation about the PCC classifier? I’d like to tune it a little, and probably be able to understand completely how it works (what is the hash function, to be exact), so any documentation on given topic would be great. Is there at least some simple info how is PCC match rewritten into underlying linux matches?
Thanks

Well, the first document actually lists the hash function as simple |-ing the fields together. I wonder what the | operation is? to me it seems like XOR, but that wouldn’t actually be ‘hashing’, afaik..
Thanks

The | in that case is manual notation. The algorithm is unknown. It is known that it also includes a random seed generated at boot time, so different values are generated after each boot given the same input. I strongly suspect only the official support channel can tell you the answer you are after.
Yeah, I was kindof afraid of that. Gonna try it though, knowing the exact function would spare me a whole lot of work.
