Message-Id: <1564875449-12122-2-git-send-email-dave.taht@gmail.com> Date: Sat, 3 Aug 2019 16:37:28 -0700 From: Dave Taht <dave.taht@...il.com> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: Dave Taht <dave.taht@...il.com> Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/2] Increase fq_codel count in the bulk dropper In the field fq_codel is often used with a smaller memory or packet limit than the default, and when the bulk dropper is hit, the drop pattern bifircates into one that more slowly increases the codel drop rate and hits the bulk dropper more than it should. The scan through the 1024 queues happens more often than it needs to. This patch increases the codel count in the bulk dropper, but does not change the drop rate there, relying on the next codel round to deliver the next packet at the original drop rate (after that burst of loss), then escalate to a higher signaling rate.
