Introduces a new flag TC_RED_HARDDROP which specifies that if ECN marking is enabled packets should still be dropped once the average queue length exceeds the maximum threshold. This _may_ help to avoid global synchronisation during small bursts of peers advertising but not caring about ECN. Use this option very carefully, it does more harm than good if (qth_max - qth_min) does not cover at least two average burst cycles. The difference to the current behaviour, in which we'd run into the hard queue limit, is that due to the low pass filter of RED short bursts are less likely to cause a global synchronisation.

Adds a new u8 flags in a unused padding area of the netlink message. Adds ECN marking support to be used instead of dropping packets immediately. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>

Since we are no longer depending on the default VQ to be always allocated we can leave it up to the user to actually create it. This gives the user the ability to leave it out on purpose and enqueue packets directly to the device without applying the RED algorithm.

Introduces a new red parameter set for use in equalize mode, although only the qavg variable and the idle period marker are being used for now this makes it possible to allow a separate parameter set to be used for equalize later on. The use of this separate parameter set fixes a bogus start of an idle period in gred_drop() which did start an idle period on the default VQ even if equalize mode was disabled.

The case when the default VQ is not set up yet is already handled in a less error prone way. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>

Try to enqueue packets if we cannot associate it with a VQ, this basically means that the default VQ has not been set up yet. We must check if the VQ still exists while requeueing, the VQ might have been changed between dequeue and the requeue of the underlying qdisc.

Qdiscs are not supposed to reset statistics in reset() and while changing parameters. My argumentation is that if the user wants the counters to be reset he can simply remove and readd the qdiscs, that's what most users do anyway.

Simplifies code a lot by separating the red algorithm and the queueing logic. We now differentiate between probability marks and forced marks but sum them together again to not break backwards compatibility. This brings GRED back to the level of RED and improves the accuracy of the averge queue length calculations when stab suggests a zero shift.

Introduces a function gred_change_table_def() acting as a central point to change the table definition. Adds missing validations for table definition: MAX_DPs > DPs > 0 and def_DP < DPs thus fixing possible invalid memory reference oopses. Only root could do it but having a typo crashing the machine is a bit hard. Adds missing locking while changing the table definition, the operation of changing the number of DPs and removing shadowed VQs may not be interrupted by a dequeue.

Introduces a flags variable using bitops and transforms eqp to use it. Converts the conditions of the form (wred && rio) to (wred) since wred can only be enabled in rio mode anyway. The patch also improves WRED mode detection. The current behaviour does not allow WRED mode to be turned off again without removing the whole qdisc first. The new algorithm checks each VQ against each other looking for equal priorities every time a VQ is changed or added. The performance is poor, O(n**2), but it's used only during administrative tasks and the number of VQs is strictly limited.

Extracts the RED algorithm from sch_red.c and puts it into include/net/red.h for use by other RED based modules. The statistics are extended to be more fine grained in order to differ between probability/forced marks/drops. We now reset the average queue length when setting new parameters, leaving it might result in an unreasonable qavg for a while depending on the value of W.

The unknown protocol is used as a fallback when a protocol isn't known. Hence we cannot handle it failing, so don't set ".me". It's OK, since we only grab a reference from within the same module (iptable_nat.ko), so we never take the module refcount from 0 to 1. Also, remove the "protocol is NULL" test: it's never NULL.

This endianness bug slipped through while changing the 'gre.key' field in the conntrack tuple from 32bit to 16bit. None of my tests caught the problem, since the linux pptp client always has '0' as call id / gre key. Only windows clients actually trigger the bug.
