    netem: fix delay calculation in rate extension · a13d3104
    Johannes Naab 提交于
    The delay calculation with the rate extension introduces in v3.3 does
    not properly work, if other packets are still queued for transmission.
    For the delay calculation to work, both delay types (latency and delay
    introduces by rate limitation) have to be handled differently. The
    latency delay for a packet can overlap with the delay of other packets.
    The delay introduced by the rate however is separate, and can only
    start, once all other rate-introduced delays finished.
    
    Latency delay is from same distribution for each packet, rate delay
    depends on the packet size.
    
    .: latency delay
    -: rate delay
    x: additional delay we have to wait since another packet is currently
       transmitted
    
      .....----                    Packet 1
        .....xx------              Packet 2
                   .....------     Packet 3
        ^^^^^
        latency stacks
             ^^
             rate delay doesn't stack
                   ^^
                   latency stacks
    
      -----> time
    
    When a packet is enqueued, we first consider the latency delay. If other
    packets are already queued, we can reduce the latency delay until the
    last packet in the queue is send, however the latency delay cannot be
    <0, since this would mean that the rate is overcommitted.  The new
    reference point is the time at which the last packet will be send. To
    find the time, when the packet should be send, the rate introduces delay
    has to be added on top of that.
