[Cerowrt-devel] eBPF filters for traffic classification?

A new capability is being added to the 3.19 kernel that allows writing BPF 
programs that run in the kernel that can do things like classifying traffic. 
Right now all this can do is to store information to be retrieved by userspace, 
but I wonder if it would be useful to use something like this for traffic 
classification for queue selection, traffic throttling, etc?
