SYNOPSISnl-pktloc-lookup name
nl-pktloc-lookup--list
DESCRIPTIONnl-pktloc-lookup searches the packet location database for a matching
entry. It is used to resolve packet location aliases to their defini‐
tion, i.e. alignment, layer, offset, and mask.
OPTIONS-h or --help
Print help text to console and exit.
-v or --version
Print versioning information to console and exit.
-l or --list
List all packet location definitions.
--u32=VALUE
Prints the packet location definition in a special format that
is understood by iproute2's u32 selector parser. It will output
a u32 selector which will compare the provided value with the
value specified by the packet location.
Please note that due to the limitation of u32, it is not possi‐
ble to use packet locations based on the link layer. nl-pktloc-
lookup will print an error message in this case.
Example:
selector=$(nl-pktloc-lookup --u32 22 tcp.sport)
tc filter add [...] u32 match $(selector) flowid 1:2
