2008-11-07pkt_sched: Control group classifierThomas Graf
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.

2008-11-03pkt_sched: sch_generic: Kfree gso_skb in qdisc_reset()Jarek Poplawski
Since gso_skb is re-used for qdisc_peek_dequeued(), and this skb is counted in the qdisc->q.qlen, it has to be kfreed during qdisc_reset() when qlen is zeroed. With help from David S.

2008-11-02sch_netem: Replace ->requeue() method with open codeJarek Poplawski
After removing netem classful functionality we are sure its inner qdisc is tfifo, so we can replace qdisc->ops->requeue() method with open code. After this patch there are no more ops->requeue() users. The idea of this patch is by Patrick McHardy. Signed-off-by: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-11-02sch_netem: Remove classful functionalityJarek Poplawski
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.

2008-10-31pkt_sched: Add peek emulation for non-work-conserving qdiscs.Jarek Poplawski
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().

2008-10-31pkt_sched: Add ->peek() methods for fifo, prio and SFQ qdiscs.Patrick McHardy
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. (This is only slightly modified Patrick's patch.) Signed-off-by: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-10-19pkt_sched: sch_generic: Fix oops in sch_teqlJarek Poplawski
After these commands: # modprobe sch_teql # tc qdisc add dev eth0 root teql0 # tc qdisc del dev eth0 root we get an oops in teql_destroy() when spin_lock is taken from a null qdisc_sleeping pointer. It's because at the moment teql0 dev haven't been activated yet, and a qdisc_root_sleeping() is pointing to noop qdisc's netdev_queue with qdisc_sleeping uninitialized. This patch fixes this both for noop and noqueue netdev_queues to avoid similar problems in the future. Signed-off-by: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

After the last change of requeuing there is no info about such incidents in tc stats. This patch updates the counter, but we should consider this should differ from previous stats because of additional checks preventing to repeat this.

2008-10-06pkt_sched: Simplify dev_requeue_skb and dequeue_skbJarek Poplawski
qdisc->requeue was planned to universally replace all requeuing code, but at the top level we never requeue more than one skb, so qdisc-> gso_skb is enough for this. qdisc->requeue would be used on the lower levels only for one level deep requeuing (like in sch_hfsc) after finishing all the changes.

2008-09-12pkt_sched: Add multiqueue scheduler supportAlexander Duyck
This patch is intended to add a qdisc to support the new tx multiqueue architecture by providing a band for each hardware queue. By doing this it is possible to support a different qdisc per physical hardware queue. This qdisc uses the skb->queue_mapping to select which band to place the traffic onto. It then uses a round robin w/ a check to see if the subqueue is stopped to determine which band to dequeue the packet from.

2008-08-29pkt_sched: Fix locking of qdisc_root with qdisc_root_sleeping_lock()Jarek Poplawski
Use qdisc_root_sleeping_lock() instead of qdisc_root_lock() where appropriate. The only difference is while dev is deactivated, when currently we can use a sleeping qdisc with the lock of noop_qdisc. This shouldn't be dangerous since after deactivation root lock could be used only by gen_estimator code, but looks wrong anyway.

2008-08-27pkt_sched: Fix gen_estimator locksJarek Poplawski
While passing a qdisc root lock to gen_new_estimator() and gen_replace_estimator() dev could be deactivated or even before grafting proper root qdisc as qdisc_sleeping (e.g. qdisc_create), so using qdisc_root_lock() is not enough.

Since some qdiscs call qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() (so qdisc_lookup()) without rtnl_lock(), adding and deleting from a qdisc list needs additional locking. This patch adds global spinlock qdisc_list_lock and wrapper functions for modifying the list.

Based upon reports by Denys Fedoryshchenko, and feedback and help from Jarek Poplawski and Herbert Xu. We always either: 1) Never made an external reference to this qdisc. or 2) Did a dev_deactivate() which purged all asynchronous references.
