====================
A new Qdisc, "ETS", has been accepted into Linux at kernel commit
6bff00170277 ("Merge branch 'ETS-qdisc'"). Add iproute2 support for this
Qdisc.
Patch #1, changes libnetlink to admit NLA_F_NESTED in nested attributes.
Patch #2 then adds ETS support as such.
Examples (taken from the kernel patchset):
- Add a Qdisc with 6 bands, 3 strict and 3 ETS with 45%-30%-25% weights:
# tc qdisc add dev swp1 root handle 1: \
ets strict 3 quanta 4500 3000 2500 priomap 0 1 1 1 2 3 4 5
# tc qdisc sh dev swp1
qdisc ets 1: root refcnt 2 bands 6 strict 3 quanta 4500 3000 2500 priomap 0 1 1 1 2 3 4 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
- Tweak quantum of one of the classes of the previous Qdisc:
# tc class ch dev swp1 classid 1:4 ets quantum 1000
# tc qdisc sh dev swp1
qdisc ets 1: root refcnt 2 bands 6 strict 3 quanta 1000 3000 2500 priomap 0 1 1 1 2 3 4 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
# tc class ch dev swp1 classid 1:3 ets quantum 1000
Error: Strict bands do not have a configurable quantum.
- Purely strict Qdisc with 1:1 mapping between priorities and TCs:
# tc qdisc add dev swp1 root handle 1: \
ets strict 8 priomap 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
# tc qdisc sh dev swp1
qdisc ets 1: root refcnt 2 bands 8 strict 8 priomap 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7
- Use "bands" to specify number of bands explicitly. Underspecified bands
are implicitly ETS and their quantum is taken from MTU. The following
thus gives each band the same weight:
# tc qdisc add dev swp1 root handle 1: \
ets bands 8 priomap 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
# tc qdisc sh dev swp1
qdisc ets 1: root refcnt 2 bands 8 quanta 1514 1514 1514 1514 1514 1514 1514 1514 priomap 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7
