fq_codel: add memory limitation per queue
On small embedded routers, one wants to control maximal amount of
memory used by fq_codel, instead of controlling number of packets or
bytes, since GRO/TSO make these not practical.
Assuming skb->truesize is accurate, we have to keep track of
skb->truesize sum for skbs in queue.
This patch adds a new TCA_FQ_CODEL_MEMORY_LIMIT attribute.
I chose a default value of 32 MBytes, which looks reasonable even
for heavy duty usages. (Prior fq_codel users should not be hurt
when they upgrade their kernels)
Two fields are added to tc_fq_codel_qd_stats to report :
- Current memory usage
- Number of drops caused by memory limits
# tc qd replace dev eth1 root est 1sec 4sec fq_codel memory_limit 4M
..
# tc -s -d qd sh dev eth1
