Enable proper JSON output for the FQ Qdisc. Use the "KEY VALUE" format for oneline output of statistics instead of "VALUE KEY", and remove unnecessary commas from the output. Use sprint_size() to print size values in fq_print_opt(). Use sprint_time64() to print time values in fq_print_xstats(). Also, update the man page to reflect the changes in the output format.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
FQ (Fair Queue) is a classless packet scheduler meant to be mostly
|
|
used for locally generated traffic. It is designed to achieve per flow pacing.
|
|
FQ does flow separation, and is able to respect pacing requirements set by TCP stack.
|
|
All packets belonging to a socket are considered as a 'flow'.
|
|
For non local packets (router workload), packet hash is used as fallback.
|
|
|
|
An application can specify a maximum pacing rate using the
|
|
.B SO_MAX_PACING_RATE
|
|
setsockopt call. This packet scheduler adds delay between packets to
|
|
respect rate limitation set on each socket. Note that after linux-4.20, linux adopted EDT (Earliest Departure Time)
|
|
and TCP directly sets the appropriate Departure Time for each skb.
|
|
|
|
Dequeueing happens in a round-robin fashion.
|
|
A special FIFO queue is reserved for high priority packets (
|
|
.B TC_PRIO_CONTROL
|
|
priority), such packets are always dequeued first.
|
|
|
|
FQ is non-work-conserving.
|
|
|
|
TCP pacing is good for flows having idle times, as the congestion
|
|
window permits TCP stack to queue a possibly large number of packets.
|
|
This removes the 'slow start after idle' choice, badly hitting
|
|
large BDP flows and applications delivering chunks of data such as video streams.
|
|
|
|
.SH PARAMETERS
|
|
.SS limit
|
|
Hard limit on the real queue size. When this limit is reached, new packets
|
|
are dropped. If the value is lowered, packets are dropped so that the new limit is
|
|
met. Default is 10000 packets.
|
|
.SS flow_limit
|
|
Hard limit on the maximum number of packets queued per flow.
|
|
Default value is 100.
|
|
.SS quantum
|
|
The credit per dequeue RR round, i.e. the amount of bytes a flow is allowed to
|
|
dequeue at once. A larger value means a longer time period before the next flow
|
|
will be served.
|
|
Default is 2 * interface MTU bytes.
|
|
.SS initial_quantum
|
|
The initial sending rate credit, i.e. the amount of bytes a new flow is allowed
|
|
to dequeue initially.
|
|
This is specifically meant to allow using IW10 without added delay.
|
|
Default is 10 * interface MTU, i.e. 15140 for 'standard' ethernet.
|
|
.SS maxrate
|
|
Maximum sending rate of a flow. Default is unlimited.
|
|
Application specific setting via
|
|
.B SO_MAX_PACING_RATE
|
|
is ignored only if it is larger than this value.
|
|
.SS buckets
|
|
The size of the hash table used for flow lookups. Each bucket is assigned a
|
|
red-black tree for efficient collision sorting.
|
|
Default: 1024.
|
|
.SS orphan_mask
|
|
For packets not owned by a socket, fq is able to mask a part of skb->hash
|
|
and reduce number of buckets associated with the traffic. This is a DDOS
|
|
prevention mechanism, and the default is 1023 (meaning no more than 1024 flows
|
|
are allocated for these packets)
|
|
.SS [no]pacing
|
|
Enable or disable flow pacing. Default is enabled.
|
|
.SS ce_threshold
|
|
sets a threshold above which all packets are marked with ECN Congestion
|
|
Experienced. This is useful for DCTCP-style congestion control algorithms that
|
|
require marking at very shallow queueing thresholds.
