Detailed Description

Linux pfifo_fast is the default priority queue enabled on Linux systems.

Introspection did not find any typical Config paths.

Packets are enqueued in three FIFO droptail queues according to three priority bands based on the packet priority.

The system behaves similar to three ns3::DropTail queues operating together, in which packets from higher priority bands are always dequeued before a packet from a lower priority band is dequeued.

The queue disc capacity, i.e., the maximum number of packets that can be enqueued in the queue disc, is set through the limit attribute, which plays the same role as txqueuelen in Linux. If no internal queue is provided, three DropTail queues having each a capacity equal to limit are created by default. User is allowed to provide queues, but they must be three, operate in packet mode and each have a capacity not less than limit. No packet filter can be provided.

Member Function Documentation

◆ CheckConfig()

bool ns3::PfifoFastQueueDisc::CheckConfig ( )
overrideprivatevirtual

Check whether the current configuration is correct.

Default objects (such as internal queues) might be created by this method to ensure the configuration is correct. This method is automatically called at simulation initialization time, and it is called before the InitializeParams () method. It is appropriate to promote parameter initialization to this method if it aids in checking for correct configuration.

QueueDisc::InitializeParams
Returns
true if the configuration is correct, false otherwise

◆ DoDequeue()

Ptr< QueueDiscItem > ns3::PfifoFastQueueDisc::DoDequeue ( )

This function actually extracts a packet from the queue disc.

0 if the operation was not successful; the item otherwise.

◆ DoEnqueue()

bool ns3::PfifoFastQueueDisc::DoEnqueue ( Ptr< QueueDiscItem item)
overrideprivatevirtual

This function actually enqueues a packet into the queue disc.

Parameters
itemitem to enqueue
Returns
True if the operation was successful; false otherwise

Implements ns3::QueueDisc.

+ Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ DoPeek()

Ptr< const QueueDiscItem > ns3::PfifoFastQueueDisc::DoPeek ( )
overrideprivatevirtual

Return a copy of the next packet the queue disc will extract.

The implementation of this method is based on the qdisc_peek_dequeued function of the Linux kernel, which dequeues a packet and retains it in the queue disc as a requeued packet. The packet is not traced as requeued, nor is the total count of requeued packets increased. The packet is still considered to be part of the queue disc and the dequeue trace is fired when Dequeue is called and the packet is actually extracted from the queue disc.

This approach is especially recommended for queue discs for which it is not obvious what is the next packet that will be dequeued (e.g., queue discs having multiple internal queues or child queue discs or queue discs that drop packets after dequeue). Subclasses can however provide their own implementation of this method that overrides the default one.

Returns
0 if the operation was not successful; the packet otherwise.

void ns3::PfifoFastQueueDisc::InitializeParams ( )

Initialize parameters (if any) before the first packet is enqueued.

This method is automatically called at simulation initialization time, after the CheckConfig() method has been called.
