  3. The traffic control tree in the transmission process in Linux Kernel

  4. Codes to be modified • All elements within the traffic-control tree can be addressed by 32-bit identifiers called handles, which are defined in /include/net/pkt_sched.h and net/sched/sch_api.c • The class packets that passed by the enqueue() function in a queuing discipline belong to is decided by filters, which are defined in include/net/pkt_cls.h • To double the queue size and store all packets which can not enter the queue in a buffer without dropping them • Modify the scheduling process in include/net/pkt_sched.h, keep the scheduling algorithm unchanged, but scheduling the queue and the buffer together

  5. Results estimation • With bigger queue and buffer size, the workstation can ensure all packets be sent, but it will cause longer delay on average • The throughput will keep unchanged in busy traffic scenarios
