-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-system is a framework to manage queuing disciplines on network
-interfaces.
-.Nm
-introduces new macros to manipulate output queues.
-The output queue macros are used to abstract queue operations and not to
-touch the internal fields of the output queue structure.
-The macros are independent from the
-.Nm
-implementation, and compatible with the traditional
-.Dv ifqueue
-macros for ease of transition.
-.Pp
-.Fn IFQ_ENQUEUE
-enqueues a packet
-.Fa m
-to the queue
-.Fa ifq .
-The underlying queuing discipline may discard the packet.
-.Fa err
-is set to 0 on success, or
-.Dv ENOBUFS
-if the packet is discarded.
-.Fa m
-will be freed by the device driver on success or by the queuing discipline on
-failure, so the caller should not touch
-.Fa m
-after calling
-.Fn IFQ_ENQUEUE .
-.Pp
-.Fn IFQ_DEQUEUE
-dequeues a packet from the queue.
-The dequeued packet is returned in
-.Fa m ,
-or
-.Fa m
-is set to
-.Dv NULL
-if no packet is dequeued.
-The caller must always check
-.Fa m
-since a non-empty queue could return
-.Dv NULL
-under rate-limiting.
-.Pp
-.Fn IFQ_POLL
-returns the next packet without removing it from the queue.
-It is guaranteed by the underlying queuing discipline that
-.Fn IFQ_DEQUEUE
-immediately after
-.Fn IFQ_POLL
-returns the same packet.
-.Pp
-.Fn IFQ_PURGE
-discards all the packets in the queue.
-The purge operation is needed since a non-work conserving queue cannot be
-emptied by a dequeue loop.
-.Pp
-.Fn IFQ_CLASSIFY
-classifies a packet to a scheduling class, and returns the result in
-.Fa pktattr .
-.Pp
-.Fn IFQ_IS_EMPTY
-can be used to check if the queue is empty.
-Note that
-.Fn IFQ_DEQUEUE
-could still return
-.Dv NULL
-if the queuing discipline is non-work conserving.
-.Pp
-.Fn IFQ_SET_MAXLEN
-sets the queue length limit to the default FIFO queue.
-.Pp
-.Fn IFQ_INC_LEN
-and
-.Fn IFQ_DEC_LEN
-increment or decrement the current queue length in packets.
-.Pp
-.Fn IFQ_INC_DROPS
-increments the drop counter and is equal to
-.Fn IF_DROP .
-It is defined for naming consistency.
-.Pp
-.Fn IFQ_SET_READY
-sets a flag to indicate this driver is converted to use the new macros.
-.Nm
-can be enabled only on interfaces with this flag.
-.Sh COMPATIBILITY
-.Ss ifaltq structure
-In order to keep compatibility with the existing code, the new
-output queue structure
-.Dv ifaltq
-has the same fields.
-The traditional
-.Fn IF_XXX
-macros and the code directly referencing the fields within
-.Dv if_snd
-still work with
-.Dv ifaltq .
-(Once we finish conversions of all the drivers, we no longer need
-these fields.)
-.Bd -literal
- ##old-style## ##new-style##
- |
- struct ifqueue { | struct ifaltq {
- struct mbuf *ifq_head; | struct mbuf *ifq_head;
- struct mbuf *ifq_tail; | struct mbuf *ifq_tail;
- int ifq_len; | int ifq_len;
- int ifq_maxlen; | int ifq_maxlen;
- int ifq_drops; | int ifq_drops;
- }; | /* altq related fields */
- | ......
- | };
- |
-.Ed
-The new structure replaces
-.Dv struct ifqueue
-in
-.Dv struct ifnet .
-.Bd -literal
- ##old-style## ##new-style##
- |
- struct ifnet { | struct ifnet {
- .... | ....
- |
- struct ifqueue if_snd; | struct ifaltq if_snd;
- |
- .... | ....
- }; | };
- |
-.Ed
-The (simplified) new
-.Fn IFQ_XXX
-macros looks like:
-.Bd -literal
- #ifdef ALTQ
- #define IFQ_DEQUEUE(ifq, m) \e
- if (ALTQ_IS_ENABLED((ifq)) \e
- ALTQ_DEQUEUE((ifq), (m)); \e
- else \e
- IF_DEQUEUE((ifq), (m));
- #else
- #define IFQ_DEQUEUE(ifq, m) IF_DEQUEUE((ifq), (m));
- #endif
-.Ed
-.Ss Enqueue operation
-The semantics of the enqueue operation are changed.
-In the new style,
-enqueue and packet drop are combined since they cannot be easily
-separated in many queuing disciplines.
-The new enqueue operation corresponds to the following macro that is
-written with the old macros.
-.Bd -literal
-#define IFQ_ENQUEUE(ifq, m, pattr, err) \e
-do { \e
- if (ALTQ_IS_ENABLED((ifq))) \e
- ALTQ_ENQUEUE((ifq), (m), (pattr), (err)); \e
- else { \e
- if (IF_QFULL((ifq))) { \e
- m_freem((m)); \e
- (err) = ENOBUFS; \e
- } else { \e
- IF_ENQUEUE((ifq), (m)); \e
- (err) = 0; \e
- } \e
- } \e
- if ((err)) \e
- (ifq)->ifq_drops++; \e
-} while (0)
-.Ed
-.Pp
-.Fn IFQ_ENQUEUE
-does the following:
-.Bl -hyphen -compact
-.It
-queue a packet
-.It
-drop (and free) a packet if the enqueue operation fails
-.El
-If the enqueue operation fails,
-.Fa err
-is set to
-.Dv ENOBUFS .
-.Fa m
-is freed by the queuing discipline.
-The caller should not touch
-.Fa m
-after calling
-.Fn IFQ_ENQUEUE ,
-so the caller may need to copy the
-.Fa m_pkthdr.len
-or
-.Fa m_flags
-fields beforehand for statistics.
-The caller should not use
-.Fn senderr
-since
-.Fa m
-was already freed.
-.Pp
-The new style
-.Fn if_output
-looks as follows:
-.Bd -literal
- ##old-style## ##new-style##
- |
- int | int
- ether_output(ifp, m0, dst, rt0) | ether_output(ifp, m0, dst, rt0)
- { | {

- | mflags = m->m_flags;
- | len = m->m_pkthdr.len;
- s = splnet(); | s = splnet();
- if (IF_QFULL(&ifp->if_snd)) { | IFQ_ENQUEUE(&ifp->if_snd, m,
- | NULL, error);
- IF_DROP(&ifp->if_snd); | if (error != 0) {
- splx(s); | splx(s);
- senderr(ENOBUFS); | return (error);
- } | }
- IF_ENQUEUE(&ifp->if_snd, m); |
- ifp->if_obytes += | ifp->if_obytes += len;
- m->m_pkthdr.len; |
- if (m->m_flags & M_MCAST) | if (mflags & M_MCAST)
- ifp->if_omcasts++; | ifp->if_omcasts++;
- |
- if ((ifp->if_flags & IFF_OACTIVE) | if ((ifp->if_flags & IFF_OACTIVE)
- == 0) | == 0)
- (*ifp->if_start)(ifp); | (*ifp->if_start)(ifp);

-.Ed
-.Ss Classifier
-The classifier mechanism is currently implemented in
-.Fn if_output .
-.Dv struct altq_pktattr
-is used to store the classifier result, and it is passed to the enqueue
-function.
-(We will change the method to tag the classifier result to mbuf in the future.)
-.Bd -literal
-int
-ether_output(ifp, m0, dst, rt0)
-{
- ......
- struct altq_pktattr pktattr;
-

-
- /* classify the packet before prepending link-headers */
- IFQ_CLASSIFY(&ifp->if_snd, m, dst->sa_family, &pktattr);
-
- /* prepend link-level headers */
- ......
-
- IFQ_ENQUEUE(&ifp->if_snd, m, &pktattr, error);

-.Ed
-.Sh HOW TO CONVERT THE EXISTING DRIVERS
-First, make sure the corresponding
-.Fn if_output
-is already converted to the new style.
-.Pp
-Look for
-.Fa if_snd
-in the driver.
-You will probably need to make changes to the lines that include
-.Fa if_snd .
-.Ss Empty check operation
-If the code checks
-.Fa ifq_head
-to see whether the queue is empty or not, use
-.Fn IFQ_IS_EMPTY .
-.Bd -literal
- ##old-style## ##new-style##
- |
- if (ifp->if_snd.ifq_head != NULL) | if (IFQ_IS_EMPTY(&ifp->if_snd) == 0)
- |
-.Ed
-Note that
-.Fn IFQ_POLL
-can be used for the same purpose, but
-.Fn IFQ_POLL
-could be costly for a complex scheduling algorithm since
-.Fn IFQ_POLL
-needs to run the scheduling algorithm to select the next packet.
-On the other hand,
-.Fn IFQ_IS_EMPTY
-checks only if there is any packet stored in the queue.
-Another difference is that even when
-.Fn IFQ_IS_EMPTY
-is
-.Dv FALSE ,
-.Fn IFQ_DEQUEUE
-could still return
-.Dv NULL
-if the queue is under rate-limiting.
-.Ss Dequeue operation
-Replace
-.Fn IF_DEQUEUE
-by
-.Fn IFQ_DEQUEUE .
-Always check whether the dequeued mbuf is
-.Dv NULL
-or not.
-Note that even when
-.Fn IFQ_IS_EMPTY
-is
-.Dv FALSE ,
-.Fn IFQ_DEQUEUE
-could return
-.Dv NULL
-due to rate-limiting.
-.Bd -literal
- ##old-style## ##new-style##
- |
- IF_DEQUEUE(&ifp->if_snd, m); | IFQ_DEQUEUE(&ifp->if_snd, m);
- | if (m == NULL)
- | return;
- |
-.Ed
-A driver is supposed to call
-.Fn if_start
-from transmission complete interrupts in order to trigger the next dequeue.
-.Ss Poll-and-dequeue operation
-If the code polls the packet at the head of the queue and actually uses
-the packet before dequeuing it, use
-.Fn IFQ_POLL
-and
-.Fn IFQ_DEQUEUE .
-.Bd -literal
- ##old-style## ##new-style##
- |
- m = ifp->if_snd.ifq_head; | IFQ_POLL(&ifp->if_snd, m);
- if (m != NULL) { | if (m != NULL) {
- |
- /* use m to get resources */ | /* use m to get resources */
- if (something goes wrong) | if (something goes wrong)
- return; | return;
- |
- IF_DEQUEUE(&ifp->if_snd, m); | IFQ_DEQUEUE(&ifp->if_snd, m);
- |
- /* kick the hardware */ | /* kick the hardware */
- } | }
- |
-.Ed
-It is guaranteed that
-.Fn IFQ_DEQUEUE
-immediately after
-.Fn IFQ_POLL
-returns the same packet.
-Note that they need to be guarded by
-.Xr splnet 9
-if called from outside of
-.Fn if_start .
-.Ss Eliminating IF_PREPEND
-If the code uses
-.Fn IF_PREPEND ,
-you have to eliminate it since the prepend operation is not possible for many
-queuing disciplines.
-A common use of
-.Fn IF_PREPEND
-is to cancel the previous dequeue operation.
-You have to convert the logic into poll-and-dequeue.
-.Bd -literal
- ##old-style## ##new-style##
- |
- IF_DEQUEUE(&ifp->if_snd, m); | IFQ_POLL(&ifp->if_snd, m);
- if (m != NULL) { | if (m != NULL) {
- |
- if (something_goes_wrong) { | if (something_goes_wrong) {
- IF_PREPEND(&ifp->if_snd, m); |
- return; | return;
- } | }
- |
- | /* at this point, the driver
- | * is committed to send this
- | * packet.
- | */
- | IFQ_DEQUEUE(&ifp->if_snd, m);
- |
- /* kick the hardware */ | /* kick the hardware */
- } | }
- |
-.Ed
-.Ss Purge operation
-Use
-.Fn IFQ_PURGE
-to empty the queue.
-Note that a non-work conserving queue cannot be emptied by a dequeue loop.
-.Bd -literal
- ##old-style## ##new-style##
- |
- while (ifp->if_snd.ifq_head != NULL) {| IFQ_PURGE(&ifp->if_snd);
- IF_DEQUEUE(&ifp->if_snd, m); |
- m_freem(m); |
- } |
- |
-.Ed
-.Ss Attach routine
-Use
-.Fn IFQ_SET_MAXLEN
-to set
-.Fa ifq_maxlen
-to
-.Fa len .
-Add
-.Fn IFQ_SET_READY
-to show this driver is converted to the new style.
-(This is used to distinguish new-style drivers.)
-.Bd -literal
- ##old-style## ##new-style##
- |
- ifp->if_snd.ifq_maxlen = qsize; | IFQ_SET_MAXLEN(&ifp->if_snd, qsize);
- | IFQ_SET_READY(&ifp->if_snd);
- if_attach(ifp); | if_attach(ifp);
- |
-.Ed
-.Ss Other issues
-The new macros for statistics:
-.Bd -literal
- ##old-style## ##new-style##
- |
- IF_DROP(&ifp->if_snd); | IFQ_INC_DROPS(&ifp->if_snd);
- |
- ifp->if_snd.ifq_len++; | IFQ_INC_LEN(&ifp->if_snd);
- |
- ifp->if_snd.ifq_len--; | IFQ_DEC_LEN(&ifp->if_snd);
- |
-.Ed
-Some drivers instruct the hardware to invoke transmission complete
-interrupts only when it thinks necessary.
-Rate-limiting breaks its assumption.
-.Ss How to convert drivers using multiple ifqueues
-Some (pseudo) devices (such as slip) have another
-.Dv ifqueue
-to prioritize packets.
-It is possible to eliminate the second queue
-since
-.Nm
-provides more flexible mechanisms but the following shows
-how to keep the original behavior.
-.Bd -literal
-struct sl_softc {
- struct ifnet sc_if; /* network-visible interface */
- ...
- struct ifqueue sc_fastq; /* interactive output queue */
- ...
-};
-.Ed
-The driver doesn't compile in the new model since it has the following
-line
-.Po
-.Fa if_snd
-is no longer a type of
-.Dv struct ifqueue
-.Pc .
-.Bd -literal
- struct ifqueue *ifq = &ifp->if_snd;
-.Ed
-A simple way is to use the original
-.Fn IF_XXX
-macros for
-.Fa sc_fastq
-and use the new
-.Fn IFQ_XXX
-macros for
-.Fa if_snd .
-The enqueue operation looks like:
-.Bd -literal
- ##old-style## ##new-style##
- |
- struct ifqueue *ifq = &ifp->if_snd; | struct ifqueue *ifq = NULL;
- |
- if (ip->ip_tos & IPTOS_LOWDELAY) | if ((ip->ip_tos & IPTOS_LOWDELAY) &&

-.Sh QUEUEING DISCIPLINES
-Queuing disciplines need to maintain

-.Po
-used by

-.Pc .
-Queuing disciplines also need to guarantee the same mbuf is returned if
-.Fn IFQ_DEQUEUE
-is called immediately after
-.Fn IFQ_POLL .
