A frame on the CAN bus carries up to 8 bytes -of payload. Frame corruption is detected by a CRC. However frame loss due to -corruption is possible, but a quite unusual phenomenon. - -While fq_codel works great for TCP/IP, it doesn't for CAN. There are a lot of -legacy protocols on top of CAN, which are not build with flow control or high -CAN frame drop rates in mind. - -When using fq_codel, as soon as the queue reaches a certain delay based length, -skbs from the head of the queue are silently dropped. Silently meaning that the -user space using a send() or similar syscall doesn't get an error. However -TCP's flow control algorithm will detect dropped packages and adjust the -bandwidth accordingly. - -When using fq_codel and sending raw frames over CAN, which is the common use -case, the user space thinks the package has been sent without problems, because -send() returned without an error. pfifo_fast will drop skbs, if the queue -length exceeds the maximum. But with this scheduler the skbs at the tail are -dropped, an error (-ENOBUFS) is propagated to user space. So that the user -space can slow down the package generation. - -On distributions, where fq_codel is made default via CONFIG_DEFAULT_NET_SCH -during compile time, or set default during runtime with sysctl -net.core.default_qdisc (see [1]), we get a bad user experience. In my test case -with pfifo_fast, I can transfer thousands of million CAN frames without a frame -drop. On the other hand with fq_codel there is more then one lost CAN frame per -thousand frames. - -As pointed out fq_codel is not suited for CAN hardware, so this patch changes -attach_one_default_qdisc() to use pfifo_fast for "ARPHRD_CAN" network devices. - -During transition of a netdev from down to up state the default queuing -discipline is attached by attach_default_qdiscs() with the help of -attach_one_default_qdisc(). This patch modifies attach_one_default_qdisc() to -attach the pfifo_fast (pfifo_fast_ops) if the network device type is -"ARPHRD_CAN". - -[1] https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/9194 - -Suggested-by: Marc Kleine-Budde -Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde -Signed-off-by: Vincent Prince -Acked-by: Dave Taht -Signed-off-by: David S.
