/* Random Early Detection (RED) algorithm.
|
|
=======================================
|
|
|
|
Source: Sally Floyd and Van Jacobson, "Random Early Detection Gateways
|
|
for Congestion Avoidance", 1993, IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking.
|
|
|
|
This file codes a "divisionless" version of RED algorithm
|
|
as written down in Fig.17 of the paper.
|
|
|
|
Short description.
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
When a new packet arrives we calculate the average queue length:
|
|
|
|
avg = (1-W)*avg + W*current_queue_len,
|
|
|
|
W is the filter time constant (chosen as 2^(-Wlog)), it controls
|
|
the inertia of the algorithm. To allow larger bursts, W should be
|
|
decreased.
|
|
|
|
if (avg > th_max) -> packet marked (dropped).
|
|
if (avg < th_min) -> packet passes.
|
|
if (th_min < avg < th_max) we calculate probability:
|
|
|
|
Pb = max_P * (avg - th_min)/(th_max-th_min)
|
|
|
|
and mark (drop) packet with this probability.
|
|
Pb changes from 0 (at avg==th_min) to max_P (avg==th_max).
|
|
max_P should be small (not 1), usually 0.01..0.02 is good value.
|
|
|
|
max_P is chosen as a number, so that max_P/(th_max-th_min)
|
|
is a negative power of two in order arithmetics to contain
|
|
only shifts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters, settable by user:
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
qth_min - bytes (should be < qth_max/2)
|
|
qth_max - bytes (should be at least 2*qth_min and less limit)
|
|
Wlog - bits (<32) log(1/W).
|
|
Plog - bits (<32)
|
|
|
|
Plog is related to max_P by formula:
|
|
|
|
max_P = (qth_max-qth_min)/2^Plog;
|
|
|
|
F.e. if qth_max=128K and qth_min=32K, then Plog=22
|
|
corresponds to max_P=0.02
|
|
|
|
Scell_log
|
|
Stab
|
|
|
|
Lookup table for log((1-W)^(t/t_ave).
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTES:
|
|
|
|
Upper bound on W.
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
If you want to allow bursts of L packets of size S,
|
|
you should choose W:
|
|
|
|
L + 1 - th_min/S < (1-(1-W)^L)/W
|
|
|
|
th_min/S = 32 th_min/S = 4
|
|
|
|

OK. qR is random number in the interval 0..Rmask
|
|
i.e. 0..(2^Plog). If we used floating point
|
|
arithmetics, it would be: (2^Plog)*rnd_num,

|
where rnd_num is less 1.
|

|
Taking into account, that qavg have fixed

|
point at Wlog, and Plog is related to max_P by
|
|
max_P = (qth_max-qth_min)/2^Plog; two lines
|

below have the following floating point equivalent:
|

max_P*(qavg - qth_min)/(qth_max-qth_min) < rnd/qcount
