/* * sch_plug.c Queue traffic until an explicit release command * * This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or * modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License * as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version * 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. * * There are two ways to use this qdisc: * 1. A simple "instantaneous" plug/unplug operation, by issuing an alternating * sequence of TCQ_PLUG_BUFFER & TCQ_PLUG_RELEASE_INDEFINITE commands. * * 2. For network output buffering (a.k.a output commit) functionality. * Output commit property is commonly used by applications using checkpoint * based fault-tolerance to ensure that the checkpoint from which a system * is being restored is consistent w.r.t outside world. * * Consider for e.g. Remus - a Virtual Machine checkpointing system, * wherein a VM is checkpointed, say every 50ms. The checkpoint is replicated * asynchronously to the backup host, while the VM continues executing the * next epoch speculatively. * * The following is a typical sequence of output buffer operations: * 1.At epoch i, start_buffer(i) * 2. At end of epoch i (i.e. after 50ms): * 2.1 Stop VM and take checkpoint(i). * 2.2 start_buffer(i+1) and Resume VM * 3. While speculatively executing epoch(i+1), asynchronously replicate * checkpoint(i) to backup host. * 4. When checkpoint_ack(i) is received from backup, release_buffer(i) * Thus, this Qdisc would receive the following sequence of commands: * TCQ_PLUG_BUFFER (epoch i) * .. TCQ_PLUG_BUFFER (epoch i+1) * ....TCQ_PLUG_RELEASE_ONE (epoch i) * ......TCQ_PLUG_BUFFER (epoch i+2) * ........ */ #include #include #include #include #include #include #include /* * State of the queue, when used for network output buffering: * * plug(i+1) plug(i) head * ------------------+--------------------+----------------> * | | * | | * pkts_current_epoch| pkts_last_epoch |pkts_to_release * ----------------->|<--------+--------->|+---------------> * v v * */ struct plug_sched_data { /* If true, the dequeue function releases all packets * from head to end of the queue.
