Some network devices have the ability to offload EDT (Earliest Departure Time) which is the model used for TCP pacing and FQ packet scheduler. Some of them implement the timing wheel mechanism described in https://saeed.github.io/files/carousel-sigcomm17.pdf with an associated 'timing wheel horizon'. This patch adds dev->max_pacing_offload_horizon expressing this timing wheel horizon in nsec units. This is a read-only attribute. Unless a driver sets it, dev->max_pacing_offload_horizon is zero. v2: addressed Jakub feedback ( https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240930152304.472767-2-edumazet@google.com/T/#mf6294d714c41cc459962154cc2580ce3c9693663 ) v3: added yaml doc (also per Jakub feedback) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Reviewed-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20241003121219.2396589-2-edumazet@google.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> |
