Hello,
Please find the DualPI2 patch v14.
v14 (05-May-2025) - Modify tc.yaml: (1) Replace flags with enum and remove enum-as-flags, (2) Remove credit-queue in xstats, and (3) Change attribute types (Donald Hunter <donald.hun - Add enum and fix the ordering of variables in pkt_sched.h to align with the modified tc.yaml (Donald Hunter donald.hunter@gmail.com) - Add validators for DROP_OVERLOAD, DROP_EARLY, ECN_MASK, and SPLIT_GSO in sch_dualpi2.c (Donald Hunter donald.hunter@gmail.com) - Update dualpi2.json to align with the updated variable order in pkt_sched.h. - Reorder patches (Donald Hunter donald.hunter@gmail.com)
v13 (26-Apr-2025) - Use dashes in member names to follow YNL conventions in tc.yaml (Donald Hunter donald.hunter@gmail.com) - Define enumerations separately for flags of drop-early, drop-overload, ecn-mask, credit-queue in tc.yaml (Donald Hunter donald.hunter@gmail.com) - Change the types of split-gso and step-packets into flag in tc.yaml (Donald Hunter donald.hunter@gmail.com) - Revert to u32/u8 types for tc-dualpi2-xstats members in tc.yaml (Donald Hunter donald.hunter@gmail.com) - Add new test cases in tc-tests/qdiscs/dualpi2.json to cover all dualpi2 paramters (Donald Hunter donald.hunter@gmail.com) - Change the type of TCA_DUALPI2_STEP_PACKETS into NLA_FLAG (Donald Hunter donald.hunter@gmail.com)
v12 (22-Apr-2025) - Remove anonymous struct in sch_dualpi2.c (Paolo Abeni pabeni@redhat.com) - Replace u32/u8 with uint and s32 with int in tc spec document (Paolo Abeni pabeni@redhat.com) - Introduce get_memory_limit function to handle potential overflow when multipling limit with MTU (Paolo Abeni pabeni@redhat.com) - Double the packet length to further include packet overhead in memory_limit (Paolo Abeni pabeni@redhat.com) - Remove the check of qdisc_qlen(sch) when calling qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog (Paolo Abeni pabeni@redhat.com)
v11 (15-Apr-2025) - Replace hstimer_init with hstimer_setup in sch_dualpi2.c
v10 (25-Mar-2025) - Remove leftover include in include/linux/netdevice.h and anonymous struct in sch_dualpi2.c (Paolo Abeni pabeni@redhat.com) - Use kfree_skb_reason() and add SKB_DROP_REASON_DUALPI2_STEP_DROP drop reason (Paolo Abeni pabeni@redhat.com) - Split sch_dualpi2.c into 3 patches (and overall 5 patches): Struct definition & parsing, Dump stats & configuration, Enqueue/Dequeue (Paolo Abeni pabeni@redhat.com)
v9 (16-Mar-2025) - Fix mem_usage error in previous version - Add min_qlen_step to the dualpi2 attribute as the minimum queue length in number of packets in the L-queue to start step threshold marking. In previous versions, this value was fixed to 2, so the step threshold was applied to mark packets in the L queue only when the queue length of the L queue was greater than or equal to 2 packets. This will cause larger queuing delays for L4S traffic at low rates (<20Mbps). So we parameterize it and change the default value to 0.
