Detailed Description

DynamicQueueLimits would be used in conjunction with a producer/consumer type queue (possibly a netdevice queue).


Introspection did not find any typical Config paths.

Such a queue would have these general properties:

1) Objects are queued up to some limit specified as number of objects. 2) Periodically a completion process executes which retires consumed objects. 3) Starvation occurs when limit has been reached, all queued data has actually been consumed, but completion processing has not yet run so queuing new data is blocked. 4) Minimizing the amount of queued data is desirable.

The goal of DynamicQueueLimits is to calculate the limit as the minimum number of objects needed to prevent starvation.

The primary functions of DynamicQueueLimits are: Completed - called at completion time to indicate how many objects were retired from the queue Available - returns how many objects are available to be queued based on the object limit and how many objects are already enqueued Queued - called when objects are enqueued to record number of objects

Member Function Documentation

◆ Available()

int32_t ns3::DynamicQueueLimits::Available ( ) const
virtual

Available is called from NotifyTransmittedBytes to calculate the number of bytes that can be passed again to the NetDevice.

A negative value means that no packets can be passed to the NetDevice. In this case, NotifyTransmittedBytes stops the transmission queue. Returns how many bytes can be queued

Returns
the number of bytes that can be queued

Implements ns3::QueueLimits.

References m_adjLimit, m_numQueued, and NS_LOG_FUNCTION.

◆ Completed()

void ns3::DynamicQueueLimits::Completed ( uint32_t  count)
virtual

Record number of completed bytes and recalculate the limit.

Parameters
countthe number of completed bytes
