From cc106e441a63bec3b1cb72948df82ea15945c449 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yang Yingliang Date: Tue, 10 Dec 2013 14:59:27 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] net: sched: tbf: fix the calculation of max_size Current max_size is caluated from rate table. Now, the rate table has been replaced and it's wrong to caculate max_size based on this rate table. It can lead wrong calculation of max_size. The burst in kernel may be lower than user asked, because burst may gets some loss when transform it to buffer(E.g. "burst 40kb rate 30mbit/s") and it seems we cannot avoid this loss. Burst's value(max_size) based on rate table may be equal user asked. If a packet's length is max_size, this packet will be stalled in tbf_dequeue() because its length is above the burst in kernel so that it cannot get enough tokens. The max_size guards against enqueuing packet sizes above q->buffer "time" in tbf_enqueue(). To make consistent with the calculation of tokens, this patch add a helper psched_ns_t2l() to calculate burst(max_size) directly to fix this problem. After this fix, we can support to using 64bit rates to calculate burst as well. Signed-off-by: Yang Yingliang Acked-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- Reading git-format-patch failed
