Thank you Kevin for creating the patch. There is already a patch on FreeBSD's Phabricator (still under review) for ipfw man page that documents Dummynet's new AQMs (CoDel and PIE) and hybrid schedulers/AQMs (FQ-CoDel and FQ-PIE). The patch includes descriptions, configurations, sysctl and examples for Dummynet's new AQMs/schedulers. You can find the patch at https://reviews.freebsd.org/D12507 (In reply to Rasool Al-Saadi from comment #1) Thanks for the update. I think this patch is still relevant because it mentions the existence of the prio scheduler, whatever that does. I think this should be kept open until the Phabricator review goes through? Documentation of Dummynet's new AQMs (CoDel and PIE) and hybrid schedulers/AQMs (FQ-CoDel and FQ-PIE) has been added to FreeBSD+12-current ipfw man page. I think this bug has been solved and should be closed now. Cheers Great, thanks. Committed as r338977. |
Created attachment 195462 [details] Patch Available queue types in dummynet are here: /usr/src/sys/netpfil/ipfw/dn_sched_* The ipfw man page documents some of them, but the newer ones are undocumented. The attached patch enumerates the new options, but does not attempt to document what they do. Arguably, this is better than not documenting them at all.
