    net_sched: implement a root container qdisc sch_mqprio · b8970f0b
    John Fastabend 提交于
    This implements a mqprio queueing discipline that by default creates
    a pfifo_fast qdisc per tx queue and provides the needed configuration
    interface.
    
    Using the mqprio qdisc the number of tcs currently in use along
    with the range of queues alloted to each class can be configured. By
    default skbs are mapped to traffic classes using the skb priority.
    This mapping is configurable.
    
    Configurable parameters,
    
    struct tc_mqprio_qopt {
    	__u8    num_tc;
    	__u8    prio_tc_map[TC_BITMASK + 1];
    	__u8    hw;
    	__u16   count[TC_MAX_QUEUE];
    	__u16   offset[TC_MAX_QUEUE];
    };
    
    Here the count/offset pairing give the queue alignment and the
    prio_tc_map gives the mapping from skb->priority to tc.
    
    The hw bit determines if the hardware should configure the count
    and offset values. If the hardware bit is set then the operation
    will fail if the hardware does not implement the ndo_setup_tc
    operation. This is to avoid undetermined states where the hardware
    may or may not control the queue mapping. Also minimal bounds
    checking is done on the count/offset to verify a queue does not
    exceed num_tx_queues and that queue ranges do not overlap. Otherwise
    it is left to user policy or hardware configuration to create
    useful mappings.
    
    It is expected that hardware QOS schemes can be implemented by
    creating appropriate mappings of queues in ndo_tc_setup().
    
    One expected use case is drivers will use the ndo_setup_tc to map
    queue ranges onto 802.1Q traffic classes. This provides a generic
    mechanism to map network traffic onto these traffic classes and
    removes the need for lower layer drivers to know specifics about
    traffic types.
