2012-05-01netem: fix possible skb leakEric Dumazet
skb_checksum_help(skb) can return an error, we must free skb in this case. qdisc_drop(skb, sch) can also be feeded with a NULL skb (if skb_unshare() failed), so lets use this generic helper.

2012-04-16net_sched: gred: Fix oops in gred_dump() in WRED modeDavid Ward
A parameter set exists for WRED mode, called wred_set, to hold the same values for qavg and qidlestart across all VQs. The WRED mode values had been previously held in the VQ for the default DP. After these values were moved to wred_set, the VQ for the default DP was no longer created automatically (so that it could be omitted on purpose, to have packets in the default DP enqueued directly to the device without using RED). However, gred_dump() was overlooked during that change; in WRED mode it still reads qavg/qidlestart from the VQ for the default DP, which might not even exist. As a result, this command sequence will cause an oops: tc qdisc add dev $DEV handle $HANDLE parent $PARENT gred setup \ DPs 3 default 2 grio tc qdisc change dev $DEV handle $HANDLE gred DP 0 prio 8 $RED_OPTIONS tc qdisc change dev $DEV handle $HANDLE gred DP 1 prio 8 $RED_OPTIONS This fixes gred_dump() in WRED mode to use the values held in wred_set.

2012-03-16sch_sfq: revert dont put new flow at the end of flowsEric Dumazet
This reverts commit d47a0ac7b6 (sch_sfq: dont put new flow at the end of flows) As Jesper found out, patch sounded great but has bad side effects. In stress situation, pushing new flows in front of the queue can prevent old flows doing any progress. Packets can stay in SFQ queue for unlimited amount of time. It's possible to add heuristics to limit this problem, but this would add complexity outside of SFQ scope. A more sensible answer to Dave Taht concerns (who reported the issued I tried to solve in original commit) is probably to use a qdisc hierarchy so that high prio packets dont enter a potentially crowded SFQ qdisc.

2012-02-07net/sched: sch_plug - Queue traffic until an explicit release commandShriram Rajagopalan
The qdisc supports two operations - plug and unplug. When the qdisc receives a plug command via netlink request, packets arriving henceforth are buffered until a corresponding unplug command is received. Depending on the type of unplug command, the queue can be unplugged indefinitely or selectively. This qdisc can be used to implement output buffering, an essential functionality required for consistent recovery in checkpoint based fault-tolerance systems. Output buffering enables speculative execution by allowing generated network traffic to be rolled back. It is used to provide network protection for Xen Guests in the Remus high availability project, available as part of Xen. This module is generic enough to be used by any other system that wishes to add speculative execution and output buffering to its applications. This module was originally available in the linux 2.6.32 PV-OPS tree, used as dom0 for Xen. For more information, please refer to http://nss.cs.ubc.ca/remus/ and http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/Remus Changes in V3: * Removed debug output (printk) on queue overflow * Added TCQ_PLUG_RELEASE_INDEFINITE - that allows the user to use this qdisc, for simple plug/unplug operations. * Use of packet counts instead of pointers to keep track of the buffers in the queue.

2012-01-12net_sched: sfq: add optional RED on top of SFQEric Dumazet
Adds an optional Random Early Detection on each SFQ flow queue. Traditional SFQ limits count of packets, while RED permits to also control number of bytes per flow, and adds ECN capability as well. 1) We dont handle the idle time management in this RED implementation, since each 'new flow' begins with a null qavg. We really want to address backlogged flows. 2) if headdrop is selected, we try to ecn mark first packet instead of currently enqueued packet. This gives faster feedback for tcp flows compared to traditional RED [ marking the last packet in queue ] Example of use : tc qdisc add dev $DEV parent 1:1 handle 10: est 1sec 4sec sfq \ limit 3000 headdrop flows 512 divisor 16384 \ redflowlimit 100000 min 8000 max 60000 probability 0.20 ecn qdisc sfq 10: parent 1:1 limit 3000p quantum 1514b depth 127 headdrop flows 512/16384 divisor 16384 ewma 6 min 8000b max 60000b probability 0.2 ecn prob_mark 0 prob_mark_head 4876 prob_drop 6131 forced_mark 0 forced_mark_head 0 forced_drop 0 Sent 1175211782 bytes 777537 pkt (dropped 6131, overlimits 11007 requeues 0) rate 99483Kbit 8219pps backlog 689392b 456p requeues 0 In this test, with 64 netperf TCP_STREAM sessions, 50% using ECN enabled flows, we can see number of packets CE marked is smaller than number of drops (for non ECN flows) If same test is run, without RED, we can check backlog is much bigger. qdisc sfq 10: parent 1:1 limit 3000p quantum 1514b depth 127 headdrop flows 512/16384 divisor 16384 Sent 1148683617 bytes 795006 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0) rate 98429Kbit 8521pps backlog 1221290b 841p requeues 0 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> CC: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> CC: Dave Taht <dave.taht@gmail.com> Tested-by: Dave Taht <dave.taht@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-01-05net_sched: sfq: extend limitsEric Dumazet
SFQ as implemented in Linux is very limited, with at most 127 flows and limit of 127 packets. [ So if 127 flows are active, we have one packet per flow ] This patch brings to SFQ following features to cope with modern needs. - Ability to specify a smaller per flow limit of inflight packets. (default value being at 127 packets) - Ability to have up to 65408 active flows (instead of 127) - Ability to have head drops instead of tail drops (to drop old packets from a flow) Example of use : No more than 20 packets per flow, max 8000 flows, max 20000 packets in SFQ qdisc, hash table of 65536 slots. tc qdisc add ... sfq \ flows 8000 \ depth 20 \ headdrop \ limit 20000 \ divisor 65536 Ram usage : 2 bytes per hash table entry (instead of previous 1 byte/entry) 32 bytes per flow on 64bit arches, instead of 384 for QFQ, so much better cache hit ratio.

SFQ enqueue algo puts a new flow _behind_ all pre-existing flows in the circular list. In fact this is probably an old SFQ implementation bug. 100 Mbits = ~8333 full frames per second, or ~8 frames per ms. With 50 flows, it means your "new flow" will have to wait 50 packets being sent before its own packet. Thats the ~6ms. We certainly can change SFQ to give a priority advantage to new flows, so that next dequeued packet is taken from a new flow, not an old one.

Commit 10f6dfcfde (Revert "sch_netem: Remove classful functionality") reintroduced classful functionality to netem, but broke basic netem behavior : netem uses an t(ime)fifo queue, and store timestamps in skb->cb[] If qdisc is changed, time constraints are not respected and other qdisc can destroy skb->cb[] and block netem at dequeue time.

2011-12-21sch_sfq: rehash queues in perturb timerEric Dumazet
A known Out Of Order (OOO) problem hurts SFQ when timer changes perturbation value, since all new packets delivered to SFQ enqueue might end on different slots than previous in-flight packets. With round robin delivery, we can thus deliver packets in a different order. Since SFQ is limited to small amount of in-flight packets, we can rehash packets so that this OOO problem is fixed. This rehashing is performed only if internal flow classifier is in use. We now store in skb->cb[] the "struct flow_keys" so that we dont call skb_flow_dissect() again while rehashing.

2011-12-12netem: add cell concept to simulate special MAC behaviorHagen Paul Pfeifer
This extension can be used to simulate special link layer characteristics. Simulate because packet data is not modified, only the calculation base is changed to delay a packet based on the original packet size and artificial cell information. packet_overhead can be used to simulate a link layer header compression scheme (e.g. set packet_overhead to -20) or with a positive packet_overhead value an additional MAC header can be simulated. It is also possible to "replace" the 14 byte Ethernet header with something else. cell_size and cell_overhead can be used to simulate link layer schemes, based on cells, like some TDMA schemes. Another application area are MAC schemes using a link layer fragmentation with a (small) header each. Cell size is the maximum amount of data bytes within one cell. Cell overhead is an additional variable to change the per-cell-overhead (e.g. 5 byte header per fragment). Example (5 kbit/s, 20 byte per packet overhead, cell-size 100 byte, per cell overhead 5 byte): tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem rate 5kbit 20 100 5 Signed-off-by: Hagen Paul Pfeifer <hagen@jauu.net> Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Acked-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-12-12sch_gred: should not use GFP_KERNEL while holding a spinlockEric Dumazet
gred_change_vq() is called under sch_tree_lock(sch). This means a spinlock is held, and we are not allowed to sleep in this context. We might pre-allocate memory using GFP_KERNEL before taking spinlock, but this is not suitable for stable material. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-12-09sch_red: generalize accurate MAX_P support to RED/GRED/CHOKEEric Dumazet
Now RED uses a Q0.32 number to store max_p (max probability), allow RED/GRED/CHOKE to use/report full resolution at config/dump time. Old tc binaries are non aware of new attributes, and still set/get Plog. New tc binary set/get both Plog and max_p for backward compatibility, they display "probability value" if they get max_p from new kernels. # tc -d qdisc show dev ... ... qdisc red 10: parent 1:1 limit 360Kb min 30Kb max 90Kb ecn ewma 5 probability 0.09 Scell_log 15 Make sure we avoid potential divides by 0 in reciprocal_value(), if (max_th - min_th) is big.

2011-12-08sch_red: Adaptative RED AQMEric Dumazet
Adaptative RED AQM for linux, based on paper from Sally FLoyd, Ramakrishna Gummadi, and Scott Shenker, August 2001 : http://icir.org/floyd/papers/adaptiveRed.pdf Goal of Adaptative RED is to make max_p a dynamic value between 1% and 50% to reach the target average queue : (max_th - min_th) / 2 Every 500 ms: if (avg > target and max_p <= 0.5) increase max_p : max_p += alpha; else if (avg < target and max_p >= 0.01) decrease max_p : max_p *= beta; target :[min_th + 0.4*(min_th - max_th), min_th + 0.6*(min_th - max_th)]. alpha : min(0.01, max_p / 4) beta : 0.9 max_P is a Q0.32 fixed point number (unsigned, with 32 bits mantissa) Changes against our RED implementation are : max_p is no longer a negative power of two (1/(2^Plog)), but a Q0.32 fixed point number, to allow full range described in Adatative paper. To deliver a random number, we now use a reciprocal divide (thats really a multiply), but this operation is done once per marked/droped packet when in RED_BETWEEN_TRESH window, so added cost (compared to previous AND operation) is near zero. dump operation gives current max_p value in a new TCA_RED_MAX_P attribute. Example on a 10Mbit link : tc qdisc add dev $DEV parent 1:1 handle 10: est 1sec 8sec red \ limit 400000 min 30000 max 90000 avpkt 1000 \ burst 55 ecn adaptative bandwidth 10Mbit # tc -s -d qdisc show dev eth3 ... qdisc red 10: parent 1:1 limit 400000b min 30000b max 90000b ecn adaptative ewma 5 max_p=0.113335 Scell_log 15 Sent 50414282 bytes 34504 pkt (dropped 35, overlimits 1392 requeues 0) rate 9749Kbit 831pps backlog 72056b 16p requeues 0 marked 1357 early 35 pdrop 0 other 0 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

RED is useful for high throughput routers, I doubt many linux machines act as such devices. I was considering adding Adaptative RED (Sally Floyd, Ramakrishna Gummadi, Scott Shender), August 2001 In this version, maxp is dynamic (from 1% to 50%), and user only have to setup min_th (target average queue size) (max_th and wq (burst in linux RED) are automatically setup) By the way it seems we have a small bug in red_change() if (skb_queue_empty(&sch->q)) red_end_of_idle_period(&q->parms); First, if queue is empty, we should call red_start_of_idle_period(&q->parms); Second, since we dont use anymore sch->q, but q->qdisc, the test is meaningless. Oh well... [PATCH] sch_red: fix red_change() Now RED is classful, we must check q->qdisc->q.qlen, and if queue is empty, we start an idle period, not end it.

2011-11-30netem: rate extensionHagen Paul Pfeifer
Currently netem is not in the ability to emulate channel bandwidth. Only static delay (and optional random jitter) can be configured. To emulate the channel rate the token bucket filter (sch_tbf) can be used. But TBF has some major emulation flaws. The buffer (token bucket depth/rate) cannot be 0. Also the idea behind TBF is that the credit (token in buckets) fills if no packet is transmitted. So that there is always a "positive" credit for new packets. In real life this behavior contradicts the law of nature where nothing can travel faster as speed of light. E.g.: on an emulated 1000 byte/s link a small IPv4/TCP SYN packet with ~50 byte require ~0.05 seconds - not 0 seconds. Netem is an excellent place to implement a rate limiting feature: static delay is already implemented, tfifo already has time information and the user can skip TBF configuration completely. This patch implement rate feature which can be configured via tc. e.g: tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem rate 10kbit To emulate a link of 5000byte/s and add an additional static delay of 10ms: tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem delay 10ms rate 5KBps Note: similar to TBF the rate extension is bounded to the kernel timing system. Depending on the architecture timer granularity, higher rates (e.g. 10mbit/s and higher) tend to transmission bursts. Also note: further queues living in network adaptors; see ethtool(8).
