There is a patch written by melifaro at freebsd.org to introduce
IP flow id generation and modified by me to add sysctl
net.inet.ip.skip_flowid_gen to disable id generation in run time
and return pre-patched behavior:

I've tested it in production for mpd5-based high loaded BRAS, it works just fine.
It uses IP src/dst addresses and TCP/UDP/SCTP ports to feed jenkins_hashword()
and to fill m->m_pkthdr.flowid.
