10 /* Random Early Detection (RED) algorithm.
11 =======================================
13 Source: Sally Floyd and Van Jacobson, "Random Early Detection Gateways
14 for Congestion Avoidance", 1993, IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking.
16 This file codes a "divisionless" version of RED algorithm
17 as written down in Fig.17 of the paper.
19 Short description.
20 ------------------
22 When a new packet arrives we calculate the average queue length:
24 avg = (1-W)*avg + W*current_queue_len,
26 W is the filter time constant (chosen as 2^(-Wlog)), it controls
27 the inertia of the algorithm. To allow larger bursts, W should be
28 decreased.
30 if (avg > th_max) -> packet marked (dropped).
31 if (avg < th_min) -> packet passes.
32 if (th_min < avg < th_max) we calculate probability:
34 Pb = max_P * (avg - th_min)/(th_max-th_min)
36 and mark (drop) packet with this probability.
37 Pb changes from 0 (at avg==th_min) to max_P (avg==th_max).
38 max_P should be small (not 1), usually 0.01..0.02 is good value.
40 max_P is chosen as a number, so that max_P/(th_max-th_min)
41 is a negative power of two in order arithmetics to contain
42 only shifts.
45 Parameters, settable by user:
46 -----------------------------
48 qth_min - bytes (should be < qth_max/2)
49 qth_max - bytes (should be at least 2*qth_min and less limit)
50 Wlog - bits (<32) log(1/W).
51 Plog - bits (<32)
53 Plog is related to max_P by formula:
55 max_P = (qth_max-qth_min)/2^Plog;
57 F.e. if qth_max=128K and qth_min=32K, then Plog=22
58 corresponds to max_P=0.02
60 Scell_log
61 Stab
63 Lookup table for log((1-W)^(t/t_ave).
66 NOTES:
68 Upper bound on W.
69 -----------------
71 If you want to allow bursts of L packets of size S,
72 you should choose W:
74 L + 1 - th_min/S < (1-(1-W)^L)/W
76 th_min/S = 32 th_min/S = 4
78 log(W) L

303 OK. qR is random number in the interval
304 (0..1/max_P)*(qth_max-qth_min)
305 i.e. 0..(2^Plog). If we used floating point
306 arithmetics, it would be: (2^Plog)*rnd_num,
307 where rnd_num is less 1.
309 Taking into account, that qavg have fixed
310 point at Wlog, two lines
311 below have the following floating point equivalent:
313 max_P*(qavg - qth_min)/(qth_max-qth_min) < rnd/qcount
