Subject: Netem tfifo implementation

Hi,
    I recently saw the qdisc "tfifo" in the netem module
(net/sched/sch_netem.c) when I migrated some of my patches from 2.6.14
to 2.6.20. As I understand, tfifo helps in keeping the queue of
packets sorted according to their "time_to_send". [tfifo was not
present in 2.6.14 perhaps because arrival order of packets was always
equal to the departure order]. However, tfifo uses a linear search in
the packet queue to find where to enqueue the packet.
    Quite some time ago (2.6.14 era), I needed a similar functionality
from the netem module and I ended up coding a pointer based min-heap
for the same. I was wondering if the community was interested in using
the min-heap implementation to replace the linear search
implementation. I have tested the min-heap quite a few times and it
seems to work.
    The implementation is slightly non-trivial because it uses
pointers to maintain the heap structure instead if using good old
fixed size arrays. I did this mainly so that the limit of the netem
qdisc could be changed on the fly. However, because every sk_buff now
needs two pointers for its children nodes, I added an extra
(sk_buff*)next2 to struct sk_buff (sorry!). However, this can probably
be changed to a pointer inside netem_skb_cb.  Also, because I needed
this for personal work and 2.6.14 didn't contain tfifo, I basically
removed the embedded qdisc and made netem a classless qdisc with my
min heap as the native "queue" (sorry again! :) )
     My patch on sch_netem.c is included. If there is interest, I will
be glad to make this into a proper tfifo patch along with any more of
your suggestions.
