Subject: [PATCH iproute2] tc/netem: loss gemodel options fixes
Date: Sat, 10 May 2014 13:34:58 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <29682.1399754098@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
First, the default value for 1-k is documented as being 0, but is
currently being set to 1. (100%). This causes all packets to be dropped
in the good state if 1-k is not explicitly specified. Fix this by setting
the default to 0.
Second, the 1-h option is parsed correctly, however, the kernel is
expecting "h", not 1-h. Fix this by inverting the "1-h" percentage before
sending to and after receiving from the kernel. This does change the
behavior, but makes it consistent with the netem documentation and the
literature on the Gilbert-Elliot model, which refer to "1-h" and "1-k,"
not "h" or "k" directly.
Last, fix a minor formatting issue for the options reporting.
