• 79246cb05   net: Make qdisc_skb_cb upper size bound explicit. ... Browse Code »

  [ Upstream commit 16bda13d90c8d5da243e2cfa1677e62ecce26860 ]

  Just like skb->cb[], so that qdisc_skb_cb can be encapsulated inside
  of other data structures.

  This is intended to be used by IPoIB so that it can remember
  addressing information stored at hard_header_ops->create() time that
  it can fetch when the packet gets to the transmit routine.

  There are enough instances of this:

  iph->frag_off & htons(IP_MF | IP_OFFSET)

  that a helper function is probably warranted.

• 26f70e120   sch_choke: add choke_skb_cb ... Browse Code »

  Better document choke skb->cb[] use, like we did in netem and sfb

  This adds a compile time check to make sure we dont exhaust skb->cb[]
  space.

• 45e144339   sched: CHOKe flow scheduler ... Browse Code »

  CHOKe ("CHOose and Kill" or "CHOose and Keep") is an alternative
  packet scheduler based on the Random Exponential Drop (RED) algorithm.

  The core idea is:
  For every packet arrival:
  Calculate Qave
  if (Qave < minth)
  Queue the new packet
  else
  Select randomly a packet from the queue
  if (both packets from same flow)
  then Drop both the packets
  else if (Qave > maxth)
  Drop packet
  else
  Admit packet with proability p (same as RED)
