2020-01-23net: sched: add Flow Queue PIE packet schedulerMohit P. Tahiliani
Principles: - Packets are classified on flows. - This is a Stochastic model (as we use a hash, several flows might be hashed to the same slot) - Each flow has a PIE managed queue. - Flows are linked onto two (Round Robin) lists, so that new flows have priority on old ones. - For a given flow, packets are not reordered. - Drops during enqueue only. - ECN capability is off by default. - ECN threshold (if ECN is enabled) is at 10% by default. - Uses timestamps to calculate queue delay by default. Usage: tc qdisc ... fq_pie [ limit PACKETS ] [ flows NUMBER ] [ target TIME ] [ tupdate TIME ] [ alpha NUMBER ] [ beta NUMBER ] [ quantum BYTES ] [ memory_limit BYTES ] [ ecnprob PERCENTAGE ] [ [no]ecn ] [ [no]bytemode ] [ [no_]dq_rate_estimator ] defaults: limit: 10240 packets, flows: 1024 target: 15 ms, tupdate: 15 ms (in jiffies) alpha: 1/8, beta : 5/4 quantum: device MTU, memory_limit: 32 Mb ecnprob: 10%, ecn: off bytemode: off, dq_rate_estimator: off Signed-off-by: Mohit P.

2020-01-23net: sched: pie: export symbols to be reused by FQ-PIEMohit P. Tahiliani
This patch makes the drop_early(), calculate_probability() and pie_process_dequeue() functions generic enough to be used by both PIE and FQ-PIE (to be added in a future commit). The major change here is in the way the functions take in arguments. This patch exports these functions and makes FQ-PIE dependent on sch_pie. Signed-off-by: Mohit P.

2020-01-23pie: rearrange structure members and their initializationsMohit P. Tahiliani
Rearrange the members of the structure such that closely referenced members appear together and/or fit in the same cacheline. Also, change the order of their initializations to match the order in which they appear in the structure. Signed-off-by: Mohit P.

2020-01-23net: sched: pie: move common code to pie.hMohit P. Tahiliani
This patch moves macros, structures and small functions common to PIE and FQ-PIE (to be added in a future commit) from the file net/sched/sch_pie.c to the header file include/net/pie.h. All the moved functions are made inline. Signed-off-by: Mohit P.
