From 822b3b2ebfff8e9b3d006086c527738a7ca00cd0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John Fastabend Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2015 14:57:33 +0200 Subject: net: Add max rate tx queue attribute This adds a tx_maxrate attribute to the tx queue sysfs entry allowing for max-rate limiting. Along with DCB-ETS and BQL this provides another knob to tune queue performance. The limit units are Mbps. By default it is disabled. To disable the rate limitation after it has been set for a queue, it should be set to zero. Signed-off-by: John Fastabend Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz Signed-off-by: David S.
