Detailed Description

Network device transmission queue.

This class stores information about a single transmission queue of a network device that is exposed to queue discs. Such information includes the state of the transmission queue (whether it has been stopped or not) and data used by techniques such as Byte Queue Limits.

This class roughly models the struct netdev_queue of Linux.

Member Function Documentation

Ptr< QueueLimits > ns3::NetDeviceQueue::GetQueueLimits ( )

Get queue limits to this queue.

Returns
the queue limits associated to this queue

Definition at line 179 of file net-device.cc.

References m_queueLimits, and NS_LOG_FUNCTION.

bool ns3::NetDeviceQueue::IsStopped ( void  ) const

Get the status of the device transmission queue.

Returns
true if the device transmission queue is stopped.

Called by queue discs to enquire about the status of a given transmission queue. This is the analogous to the netif_tx_queue_stopped function of the Linux kernel.

Definition at line 88 of file net-device.cc.

References m_stoppedByDevice, and m_stoppedByQueueLimits.

void ns3::NetDeviceQueue::NotifyQueuedBytes ( uint32_t  bytes)

Called by the netdevice to report the number of bytes queued to the device queue.

Parameters
bytesnumber of bytes queued to the device queue

Definition at line 124 of file net-device.cc.

References m_queueLimits, m_stoppedByQueueLimits, and NS_LOG_FUNCTION.

void ns3::NetDeviceQueue::NotifyTransmittedBytes ( uint32_t  bytes)

Called by the netdevice to report the number of bytes it is going to transmit.

Parameters
bytesnumber of bytes the device is going to transmit

+ Here is the call graph for this function:

void ns3::NetDeviceQueue::ResetQueueLimits ( )

Reset queue limits state.

Definition at line 161 of file net-device.cc.

References m_queueLimits, and NS_LOG_FUNCTION.

void ns3::NetDeviceQueue::SetQueueLimits ( Ptr< QueueLimits ql)

Set queue limits to this queue.

Parameters
qlthe queue limits associated to this queue

Definition at line 172 of file net-device.cc.

References m_queueLimits, and NS_LOG_FUNCTION.

void ns3::NetDeviceQueue::SetWakeCallback ( WakeCallback  cb)
virtual

Set the wake callback.

Parameters
cbthe callback to set

Called by the traffic control layer to set the wake callback. The wake callback is invoked by the device whenever it is needed to "wake" the upper layers (i.e., solicitate the queue disc associated with this transmission queue (in case of multi-queue aware queue discs) or to the network device (otherwise) to send packets down to the device).

Definition at line 118 of file net-device.cc.

References m_wakeCallback.

void ns3::NetDeviceQueue::Start ( void  )
virtual

Called by the device to start this device transmission queue.

This is the analogous to the netif_tx_start_queue function of the Linux kernel.

Definition at line 94 of file net-device.cc.

References m_stoppedByDevice.

Referenced by Wake().

+ Here is the caller graph for this function:

void ns3::NetDeviceQueue::Stop ( void  )
virtual

Called by the device to stop this device transmission queue.

This is the analogous to the netif_tx_stop_queue function of the Linux kernel.

Definition at line 100 of file net-device.cc.

References m_stoppedByDevice.

void ns3::NetDeviceQueue::Wake ( void  )
virtual

Called by the device to wake the queue disc associated with this device transmission queue.

This is done by invoking the wake callback. This is the analogous to the netif_tx_wake_queue function of the Linux kernel.

Definition at line 106 of file net-device.cc.
