[PATCH 0/7] SFQ: backport some features from ESFQ

[PATCH 0/7] SFQ: backport some features from ESFQ

[Corey Hickey]

Hello,

This set of patches adds some of ESFQ's modifications to the original 
SFQ. Thus far, I have received support for this approach rather than for 
trying to get ESFQ included as a separate qdisc.

http://mailman.ds9a.nl/pipermail/lartc/2007q2/021056.html

My patches here implement "tc qdisc change", user-configurable depth 
(number of flows), and user-configurable divisor (for setting hash table 
size). I've left out the remaining ESFQ features (usage of jhash and 
different hashing methods) because Patrick McHardy intends to submit a 
patch that will supersede that functionality; see the URL above.

Default values remain the same, and SFQ's default behavior remains the 
same, so there should be no user disruption.

A patch for iproute2 is included after the end of the kernel patch series.

Thanks for your consideration,
Corey

[PATCH 1/7] Preparatory refactoring part 1.

[Corey Hickey]

Make a new function sfq_q_enqueue() that operates directly on the
queue data. This will be useful for implementing sfq_change() in
a later patch. A pleasant side-effect is reducing most of the
duplicate code in sfq_enqueue() and sfq_requeue().

Similarly, make a new function sfq_q_dequeue().

[PATCH 2/7] Preparatory refactoring part 2.

[Corey Hickey]

Factor code out of sfq_init() and sfq_destroy(), again so that the
new functions can be used by sfq_change() later.

Actually, as the diff itself shows, most of the sfq_q_init() code
comes from the original sfq_change(), but sfq_change() is only
called by sfq_init() right now. Thus, it is safe to remove
sfq_change(); "tc qdisc change" doesn't yet work for sfq anyway.

The sfq_destroy() --> sfq_q_destroy() change looks pointless here,
but it's cleaner to split now and add code to sfq_q_destroy() in a
later patch.

[PATCH 3/7] Move two functions.

Move sfq_q_destroy() to above sfq_q_init() so that it can be used
by an error case in a later patch.

Move sfq_destroy() as well, for clarity.

[PATCH] [iproute2] SFQ: Support changing depth and divisor.

[Corey Hickey]

This can safely be applied either before or after the kernel
patches because the tc_sfq_qopt struct is unchanged:

- old kernels will ignore the parameters from new iproute2
- new kernels will use the same default parameters

No need to check for !=NULL. kfree handles NULL.

Compare depth against (~0U/2)-1? What's that doing? Should probably add a comment.

You may chose to use kcalloc for array allocations.

~0U/2 - 1 is the maximum value depth can be, based on how it is used in 
indexing q->dep. I agree, though, that deserves a comment. Actually, 
I'll also change it to '#define SFQ_DEPTH_MAX (~0U/2 - 1)' and put it 
near the top of the file next to the 'typedef unsigned int sfq_index;'.

I could also include limits.h and use UINT_MAX instead of ~0U; would 
that be preferable?

The arrays in the original code don't get zeroed either, so that 
shouldn't be necessary (and I haven't heard of any problems so far). Do 
you suggest I use kcalloc() anyway, just as a good practice?

Are you saying that the 'err_case:' leaks kmallocs? It calls 
sfq_q_destroy(q), which kfrees each of the arrays: dep, next, allot, 
hash, and qs. Is that sufficient, or am I missing something or 
misunderstanding you?

Thank you for your review. Could you please clarify the questions I 
have? I'll make, test, and submit a revision of this patch after that.

Seems like a good idea.

Well, I think we don't have strict rules on that, so it depends
on the developer's taste. The advantage of kcalloc is, that it might
catch errors in the args better than this opencoded multiplication.
(There's some BUG_ON logic in kcalloc)

Ok, I didn't see that. So this should be ok.

[PATCH 6/7] Make qdisc changeable.

[Corey Hickey]

Re-implement sfq_change() and enable Qdisc_opts.change so "tc qdisc
change" will work.

If no value is given it should use the old value instead of
reinitializing to the default.

This will also use defaults for all unspecified values. It would
be more consistent with other qdiscs to only change those values
that are actually specified, so something like "tc qdisc change ...
perturb 10" will *only* change the perturbation parameter.
I'm not sure reusing the initialization function and copying the
parameters is the best way to do this.

I somehow had it in my head that a qdisc change was supposed to work 
that way. I'll change my patch.

> I'm not sure reusing the initialization function and copying the

I'm not sure either, but I do like that it's conceptually simple and it 
keeps the parameter handling in one place. I've thought and stared for a 
while, and I don't see a better way, but that could of course be due to 
my limited understanding and general newbiehood in that regard.

Thanks again for the review. I'll try to get a new batch of patches sent 
off tomorrow.

I'm fixed this for all the parameters except one--your example above.
Since 0 is a valid value for perturb, I can't see any clever way to
differentiate between the user specifying "perturb 0" or leaving perturb
unspecified. Either way, opt->perturb_period is 0.

The only way I can see would be to add another member, say,
opt->perturb_specified, and use that accordingly. Unfortunately, this
would break usage of sfq with older versions of tc, so I'm hoping
there's a better approach.

Do you have any suggestions? I've looked at the other qdisc files and I 
don't see any other instances like this.

Thanks,
Corey

Maybe use the nested compat attribute and split the base SFQ
struct in the individual members ..
