I read the sched/qdiscs code from kernel source ... and I have some questions : When the .enqueue, .dequeue, .drop, .requeue functions are called ? What is the event that triggers them and how often this event apears ( per second ? ) ? When a qdisc is dequeued ( when it''s limit is reached ) ? Thanks _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list /

Hello, I think the BUG_TRAP() in the htb_dequeue_tree() is wrong. First it checks if the class pointer "cl" is NULL, which is obviously right. But I do not understand why we also check whenever the queue length of the leaf queue is zero "cl->un.leaf.q->q.qlen". I would have put that in the expression of the "if" statements that comes afterwards. A queue

Hello, Normally, in addition to such qdisc scheduler mechanisms as FIFO, PQ, WRR, WFQ, are there any more? Then, there is a confusion on scheduler in Linux enviroment: Assume there is a qdisc, such as RED as a leaf qdisc in a router, we know, if there is packet which want to enqueue the packet, the Function red_enqueue is called, but when the packet leave the queue(when the Function red_dequeue

Hello everybody, I try to work with TC for a little while in my study and there still are a few questions that I can\''t find any answer anywhere. Firts about qdisc and classes: - What is exactly the difference between qdsic and class ? They are so \"intimately tied together\" that i\''m not sure not make the difference. Why can\''t we have a qdsic HTB with

There is an design problem with the qdisc interface that causes qlen related bugs in netem, tbf, and other qdisc''s that peek at the top of the queue. The problem is that requeue needs to be called from the dequeue function but requeue can fail. If requeue fails, then the calling qdisc can not properly handle the error. If it returns NULL, then the parent''s expectation about qlen

Hi to all of you!!! I am a Computer Science student trying to do the pre-grade thesis. I am trying to develop a free software tool to help administrators to control the traffic. Right now this tool is based on tc and iptables. I am having some problems trying to understand tc and tc examples: - Why in almost every list of tc rules based on htb class, there is a "tc qdisc dev ... root ...

Hi - I''ve been going through the LARTC how-to and have successfully used the sample scripts (and wondershaper) with my xDSL links. I''m now faced with the challenge of providing 8 users at work an effective remote access connection over a PSTN ppp connection. The critical traffic in this case relates to our stock enquiry application which is running over terminal services.

Hi, I would like to make a QoS configuration on a linux based dsl router. It is for a server, so I want to shape outgoing traffic, incoming traffic should not be a problem as long as I have a quite assymetric connection. I would like to achieve the following goals: 1) To have one class (p2p) having all the available bandwith if there is no activity on other classes. 2) If another class (ftp

Hi All, I''m using HTB to shape traffic, a little like this: tc qdisc add dev eth2 root handle 1:0 htb tc qdisc add dev eth3 root handle 1:0 htb tc filter add dev eth2 parent 1: protocol 0x8100 prio 5 u32 match u16 3000 0x0fff at 0 flowid 1:1 action ipt -j MARK --or-mark 0x01000000 tc filter add dev eth3 parent 1: protocol 0x8100 prio 5 u32 match u16 3000 0x0fff at 0 flowid 1:1 action

The HTB scheduler code is a mess, this patch set does some basic house cleaning. The first four should cause no code change, but the last two need more testing. -- Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> "And in the Packet there writ down that doome" - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to

I run a small Linux webserver and NAT router from my cable modem at home. Whenever someone starts an http download, all other traffic from my LAN is starved. Bandwidth is not really an issue, but latency is particularly horrible -- pings that usually come back in 20ms can take up to 600ms while the web server is active! I set up QoS (netfilter+iproute2) on the NAT machine in an attempt to give

Hello, I''m trying to get lossless VoIP traffic over my 3000k/500k ADSL line. Shaping outgoing traffic is no problem: I set total ceil for outgiong device (ppp0) to 450kbit and put VoIP into highest prio class. Even during full upload the voice is clean on the other end. Now I tried to get the same result for incoming data. I attached HTB to eth1 where the incoming voip traffic is

This patch updates the network emulation packet scheduler. * name changed from delay to netem since it does more than just delay * Catalin''s merged code to do packet reordering * uses a socket queue''s directly rather than layering on qdisc(fifo) because this is used in performance tests. * adds placeholder in API for future enhancements (rate and duplicate).

Hi all. I''m quite new to the concepts of the "traffic control" framework, and I''ve got a programming-related question. Hopefully someone has the answer... Is it possible, either for the device driver itself or for a userspace program, to get information about how many packets are currently queued for a given network interface? Let''s describe it a little

Hello, really new to advanced linux routing, but I have managed to setup something that sort of works for my needs. I have a linux box with this configuration: Internet - eth0 - eth1 - many users I''m using a NAT to allow my users Internet access. On some users, I wish to shape their download speeds as to not overload our outside connection. Here is what I do to shape them at 64k

Hello, I''m using tc to limit the bandwidth of our wireless customers. I have a working script, but I''m not happy with it. I''m trying to write a more sophisticated script, but when I run it, it give me this error: RTNETLINK answers: File exists I have no idea what this error means or how to fix it. Here is a portion of the script (the whole script shapes several

hi i tried the example given on the examples page to duplicate selected traffic like tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: prio tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:3 handle 3: netem duplicate 40% tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip parent 1:0 prio 3 u32 match ip dst 11.0.2.2 flowid 1:3 when i ping from 11.0.2.2 to this interface my machine hangs. the same thing works for drop or delay. i would

now, i''m learning and try to read a lot of article about tc command in linux for setting traffic shaper. but i''m doubt about In the theory about tc command ... In general, we define class under root qdisc but Is it can be possible ???? If we define another qdisc under root qdisc, Can i do it? because i have just read tc command syntax and i found this point ... syntax: tc qdisc

I thought I had this all worked out, but it seems not. The following tc configuration: tc qdisc del dev ppp0 root 2> /dev/null > /dev/null tc qdisc add dev ppp0 root handle 1: tbf rate 120kbit burst 1200 limit 1 tc qdisc add dev ppp0 parent 1:1 handle 2: prio bands 3 tc qdisc add dev ppp0 parent 2:1 handle 10: sfq perturb 20 tc qdisc add dev ppp0 parent 2:2 handle 20: sfq perturb 20 tc

I''ve been following the HOWTO, and reading mailing list discussions about throttling bandwidth, and have had some success, but I just want to tie off some loose ends. Essentially what I am wanting to do is to keep our bandwidth usage below 1megabit, because if we go over we get charged for that traffic. I''ve used some of the examples from the HOWTO to limit our bandwidth, but I
