Slide 37 of below link mentions that SFQRED implemented in Linux 3.4<br>
upwards, "Utilized a better version of RED (“ARED”) from Sally Floyd<br>
in 2002". However I'm unable to find the "adaptive" bit of SFQRED in<br>
the kernel and iproute code. Can anyone (Dave or Eric) confirm that<br>
the mentioned statement is correct?<br>

<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I think you are correct in that the adaptive RED code never formally made it into SFQRED. SFQRED was a brief blip in time before codel showed up... I'd talked about it in that talk as a steppingstone in hybrid fq+aqm history. (prior to that we were working with qfq + red as entirely separate, modular qdiscs). So... oops.<br>
<br>I think the work was interesting and valuable, and if you want to play with the ARED variant probably all you have to do is OR in the TC_ADAPTATIVE value into the flags on the red setup in sch_sfq.c<br><br></div><div>
Eric added ARED support to sch_red in kernel commit: 8af2a218de38f51ea4b4fa48cac1273319ae260c<br><br><a href="https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/exynos/+/8af2a218de38f51ea4b4fa48cac1273319ae260c">https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/exynos/+/8af2a218de38f51ea4b4fa48cac1273319ae260c</a><br>
<br>and some ip route version later corrected "adaptive" to be the user-facing syntax. I just ran a quick, dirty and (nonsensical*) rrul test with this:<br><br>tc qdisc add dev eth0 root red limit 40000 min 30000 max 90000 avpkt 1000 burst 55 ecn adaptive bandwidth 10Mbit<br>
<br>tc -s qdisc show dev eth0<br>qdisc red 8005: root refcnt 2 limit 40000b min 30000b max 90000b ecn adaptive <br> Sent 858913226 bytes 823269 pkt (dropped 4866, overlimits 123 requeues 0) <br> backlog 0b 0p requeues 0 <br>
