I would really like a sane implementation of some basic tc scripts for
SFB and CHOKe to be out there. 

Dan Siemon's recent set of bufferbloat-related tests

http://www.coverfire.com/archives/2011/02/21/network-latency-experiments/

appeared to invoke issues between multiple queuing disciplines when
using SFB.

Now that SFB is kernel bound, and CHOKe as well, I've merged up
support for CHOKe and SFB into this git repo for iproute2 and the tc
traffic control tool.

See:

https://github.com/dtaht/iproute2bufferbloat

There is a debloat-testing Linux kernel repo up at:

http://git.infradead.org/debloat-testing.git

It builds, I haven't booted into it yet. The patch set is pretty minor,
if you already have a Linux-2.6 tree it pays to use:

git clone --references your_existing_tree  git://git.infradead.org/debloat-testing.git

(Doesn't have SFB yet, either. John?)
