linux-toradex.git/include/net/fq_impl.h, branch v4.11-rc3 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules fq.h: Port memory limit mechanism from fq_codel 2016-09-30T11:29:21+00:00 Toke Høiland-Jørgensen toke@toke.dk 2016-09-23T19:59:09+00:00 097b065b5cbfa3fd57b47f3c86d6baa96c30bf31 The reusable fairness queueing implementation (fq.h) lacks the memory usage limit that the fq_codel qdisc has. This means that small devices (e.g. WiFi routers) can run out of memory when flooded with a large number of packets. This ports the memory limit feature from fq_codel to fq.h.

fq: split out backlog update logic 2016-04-28T21:03:38+00:00 Michal Kazior michal.kazior@tieto.com 2016-04-27T10:59:13+00:00 b43e7199a9061562e28c72192a1d07e00ec4e97f mac80211 (which will be the first user of the fq.h) recently started to support software A-MSDU aggregation. It glues skbuffs together into a single one so the backlog accounting needs to be more fine-grained. To avoid backlog sorting logic duplication split it up for re-use.

fq: add fair queuing framework 2016-04-25T20:45:53+00:00 Michal Kazior michal.kazior@tieto.com 2016-04-22T12:20:13+00:00 557fc4a098039cf296fe33f118bab99a925fd881 This works on the same implementation principle as codel*.h, i.e. there's a generic header with structures and macros and a implementation header carrying function definitions to include in given, e.g. driver or module. The fairness logic comes from net/sched/sch_fq_codel.c but is generalized so it is more flexible and easier to re-use. Signed-off-by: Michal Kazior <michal.kazior@tieto.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
