NAME
       skbedit - SKB editing action

SYNOPSIS
       tc  ...	action	skbedit [ queue_mapping QUEUE_MAPPING ] [ priority PRIORITY ] [ mark MARK[/MASK] ] [ ptype PTYPE ] [
	       inheritdsfield ]

DESCRIPTION
       The skbedit action allows one to change a packet's associated meta data. It complements the pedit  action,  which  in
       turn allows one to change parts of the packet data itself.

       The  most  unique feature of skbedit is its ability to decide over which queue of an interface with multiple transmit
       queues the packet is to be sent out. The number of available transmit queues is reflected  by  sysfs  entries  within
       /sys/class/net//queues with name tx-N (where N is the actual queue number).

OPTIONS
       queue_mapping QUEUE_MAPPING
	      Override	the  packet's transmit queue. Useful when applied to packets transmitted over MQ-capable network in‐
	      terfaces.	 QUEUE_MAPPING is an unsigned 16bit value in decimal format.

       priority PRIORITY
	      Override the packet classification decision.  PRIORITY is either root, none or a hexadecimal  major  class  ID
	      optionally followed by a colon (:) and a hexadecimal minor class ID.

       mark MARK[/MASK]
	      Change  the  packet's  firewall  mark value.  MARK is an unsigned 32bit value in automatically detected format
	      (i.e., prefix with '0x' for hexadecimal interpretation, etc.).  MASK defines the 32-bit mask selecting bits of
	      mark value. Default is 0xffffffff.

       ptype PTYPE
	      Override the packet's type. Useful for setting packet type to host when needing to  allow	 ingressing  packets
	      with the wrong MAC address but correct IP address.  PTYPE is one of: host, otherhost, broadcast, multicast

       inheritdsfield
	      Override	the  packet  classification  decision,	and any value specified with priority, using the information
	      stored in the Differentiated Services Field of the IPv6/IPv4 header (RFC2474).
