Subject: [Cake] customizing Cake's isolation with ipsets, tc-flow and eBPF
Date: Sun, 06 Jun 2021 12:11:54 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <22f3032d0dfd47f53d4d6595ee6bd192377fbc6e.camel@heistp.net> (raw)

I've always wanted a way to customize Cake's host and flow isolation in
a way that would be usable e.g. for small ISPs, and this is what I came
up with:

https://github.com/heistp/cake-custom-isolation

ipsets are used to set the skb priority or mark, then tc-flow or a
simple eBPF classifier is used in a child filter of cake to get the
major and minor class IDs set, which override the host and flow hashes.

To show it in action, the cakeiso.sh script sets up a netns environment
and runs competition between two "subscribers" and three flows, two TCP
flows and one unresponsive UDP flow. Several configurations are run to
show what is and isn't possible.

If anyone knows of a simpler way than eBPF to get both the major and
minor class ID set from ipsets, I'd like to hear it, but the included
classifiers are at least very simple one-liners...

Pete
