will any one do me a favor to answer the question about tc_index value ?

[<folke@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

hi all

  i am a new commer of linux community. 
i want to how does skb->tcindex value change
exactly. it confused me indeed. 

i have a script reads:
(1) tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1:0 dsmark indices 64 default_index 0x161 set_tc_index
(2) tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1:0 protocol all prio 1 tcindex mask 0xfc shift 2 pass_on
(3) tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1:0 prio 1 handle 0x0a tcindex classid 1:111
(4) tc filter add dev eth0 parent 2:0 protocol all prio 1 tcindex mask 0xf0 shift 4 pass_on
(5) tc filter add dev eth0 parent 2:0 prio 1 handle 1 tcindex classid 2:2

now if a packet with a Diffserv field 0x28 , its skb->tcindex value 
will be change into 0xa by masking 0xfc and shift 2. Is that so?

then it'll be match by the filter defined in line (3) and got a 
classid 1:111, now what is its skb->tcindex value then in binary ?
is it 0001,0001,0001 or in hex 0x111 ? 

i think that skb->tcindex value is only 8bits. is that so?

if after line (3), its skb->tcindex value is 0x111, then 
after line (4), its skb->tcindex value  should be 0x1 , right?

now, in line (5), because its skb->tcindex value is 0x1, 
it is directed into class 2:2, right?
ok ,what is its skb->tcindex value  now ? 0x2 or 0x111 ? 

thanks for answer these quesions :)
