src: add hash expression
This is special expression that transforms an input expression into a 32-bit unsigned integer. This expression takes a modulus parameter to scale the result and the random seed so the hash result becomes harder to predict. You can use it to set the packet mark, eg. # nft add rule x y meta mark set jhash ip saddr . ip daddr mod 2 seed 0xdeadbeef You can combine this with maps too, eg. # nft add rule x y dnat to jhash ip saddr mod 2 seed 0xdeadbeef map { \ 0 : 192.168.20.100, \ 1 : 192.168.30.100 \ } Currently, this expression implements the jenkins hash implementation available in the Linux kernel: http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/include/linux/jhash.h But it should be possible to extend it to support any other hash function type.
