* pkt_sched: gen_estimator: Optimize gen_estimator_active()Jarek Poplawski2008-11-261-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since all other gen_estimator functions use bstats and rate_est params together, and searching for them is optimized now, let's use this also in gen_estimator_active(). The return type of gen_estimator_active() is changed to bool, and gen_find_node() parameters to const, btw. In tcf_act_police_locate() a check for ACT_P_CREATED is added before calling gen_estimator_active(). Signed-off-by: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* tc: policing requires a rate estimatorStephen Hemminger2008-11-251-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | Found that while trying average rate policing, it was possible to request average rate policing without a rate estimator. This results in no policing which is harmless but incorrect. Since policing could be setup in two steps, need to check in the kernel.

* pkt_sched: sch_drr: fix drr_dequeue loop()Patrick McHardy2008-11-241-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Jarek Poplawski points out: If all child qdiscs of sch_drr are non-work-conserving (e.g. sch_tbf) drr_dequeue() will busy-loop waiting for skbs instead of leaving the job for a watchdog. Checking for list_empty() in each loop isn't necessary either, because this can never be true except the first time. Using non-work-conserving qdiscs as children of DRR makes no sense, simply bail out in that case.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The use of xchg() hasn't been necessary since 2.2.something when proper locking was added to packet schedulers. In the case of classifiers they mostly weren't even necessary before that since they're mainly used to assign a NULL pointer to the filter root in the ->destroy path; the root is destroyed immediately after that.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add classful DRR scheduler as a more flexible replacement for SFQ. The main difference to the algorithm described in "Efficient Fair Queueing using Deficit Round Robin" is that this implementation doesn't drop packets from the longest queue on overrun because its classful and limits are handled by each individual child qdisc.

* | netdev: network device operations infrastructureStephen Hemminger2008-11-191-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the network device internal API to move adminstrative operations out of the network device structure and into a separate structure. This patch involves some hackery to maintain compatablity between the new and old model, so all 300+ drivers don't have to be changed at once. For drivers that aren't converted yet, the netdevice_ops virt function list still resides in the net_device structure. For old protocols, the new net_device_ops are copied out to the old net_device pointers. After the transistion is completed the nag message can be changed to an WARN_ON, and the compatiablity code can be made configurable. Some function pointers aren't moved: * destructor can't be in net_device_ops because it may need to be referenced after the module is unloaded. * neighbor setup is manipulated in a couple of places that need special consideration * hard_start_xmit is in the fast path for transmit.

* | pkt_sched: Remove qdisc->ops->requeue() etc.Jarek Poplawski2008-11-1316-377/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After implementing qdisc->ops->peek() and changing sch_netem into classless qdisc there are no more qdisc->ops->requeue() users. This patch removes this method with its wrappers (qdisc_requeue()), and also unused qdisc->requeue structure. There are a few minor fixes of warnings (htb_enqueue()) and comments btw. The idea to kill ->requeue() and a similar patch were first developed by David S. Miller. Signed-off-by: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* | pkt_sched: Control group classifierThomas Graf2008-11-073-0/+302
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The classifier should cover the most common use case and will work without any special configuration. The principle of the classifier is to directly access the task_struct via get_current(). In order for this to work, classification requests from softirqs must be ignored. This is not a problem because the vast majority of packets in softirq context are not assigned to a task anyway. For this to work, a mechanism is needed to trace softirq context. This repost goes back to the method of relying on the number of nested bh disable calls for the sake of not adding too much complexity and the option to come up with something more reliable if actually needed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After removing netem classful functionality we are sure its inner qdisc is tfifo, so we can replace qdisc->ops->requeue() method with open code.

* | sch_netem: Remove classful functionalityJarek Poplawski2008-11-021-87/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patrick McHardy noticed that: "a lot of the functionality of netem requires the inner tfifo anyways and rate-limiting is usually done on top of netem. So I would suggest so either hard-wire the tfifo qdisc or at least make the assumption that inner qdiscs are work-conserving.", and later: "- a lot of other qdiscs still don't work as inner qdiscs of netem [...]". So, according to his suggestion, this patch removes classful options of netem. The main reason of this change is to remove ops->requeue() method, which is currently used only by netem.

* | pkt_sched: Add peek emulation for non-work-conserving qdiscs.Jarek Poplawski2008-10-316-6/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds qdisc_peek_dequeued() wrapper to emulate peek method with qdisc->dequeue() and storing "peeked" skb in qdisc->gso_skb until dequeuing. This is mainly for compatibility reasons not to break some strange configs because peeking is expected for non-work-conserving parent qdiscs to query work-conserving child qdiscs. This implementation requires using qdisc_dequeue_peeked() wrapper instead of directly calling qdisc->dequeue() for all qdiscs ever querried with qdisc->ops->peek() or qdisc_peek_dequeued().

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Just as a demonstration how easy adding a peek operation to the work-conserving qdiscs actually is. It doesn't need to keep or change any internal state in many cases thanks to the guarantee that the packet will either be dequeued or, if another packet arrives, the upper qdisc will immediately ->peek again to reevaluate the state.
