net_sched: sch_fq: add 3 bands and WRR scheduling
Before Google adopted FQ for its production servers, we had to ensure AF4 packets would get a higher share than BE1 ones. As discussed this week in Netconf 2023 in Paris, it is time to upstream this for public use. After this patch FQ can replace pfifo_fast, with the following differences : - FQ uses WRR instead of strict prio, to avoid starvation of low priority packets. - We make sure each band/prio tracks its own usage against sch->limit. This was done to make sure flood of low priority packets would not prevent AF4 packets to be queued. Contributed by Willem. - priomap can be changed, if needed (default value are the ones coming from pfifo_fast). In this patch, we set default band weights so that : - high prio (band=0) packets get 90% of the bandwidth if they compete with low prio (band=2) packets. - high prio packets get 75% of the bandwidth if they compete with medium prio (band=1) packets. Following patch in this series adds the possibility to tune the per-band weights. As we added many fields in 'struct fq_sched_data', we had to make sure to have the first cache line read-mostly, and avoid wasting precious cache lines. More optimizations are possible but will be sent separately.
