This is the Stochastic Fair Blue scheduler, based on work from :
W. Feng, D. Kandlur, D. Saha, K. Shin. Blue: A New Class of Active Queue
Management Algorithms. U. Michigan CSE-TR-387-99, April 1999.
http://www.thefengs.com/wuchang/blue/CSE-TR-387-99.pdf
This implementation is based on work done by Juliusz Chroboczek
General SFB algorithm can be found in figure 14, page 15:
B[l][n] : L x N array of bins (L levels, N bins per level)
enqueue()
Calculate hash function values h{0}, h{1}, .. h{L-1}
Update bins at each level
for i = 0 to L - 1
if (B[i][h{i}].qlen > bin_size)
B[i][h{i}].p_mark += p_increment;
else if (B[i][h{i}].qlen == 0)
B[i][h{i}].p_mark -= p_decrement;
p_min = min(B[0][h{0}].p_mark ... B[L-1][h{L-1}].p_mark);
if (p_min == 1.0)
ratelimit();
else
mark/drop with probabilty p_min;
I did the adaptation of Juliusz code to meet current kernel standards,
and various changes to address previous comments :

Default flow classifier is the rxhash introduced by RPS in 2.6.35, but
we can use an external flow classifier if wanted.
tc qdisc add dev $DEV parent 1:11 handle 11: \
est 0.5sec 2sec sfb limit 128
tc filter add dev $DEV protocol ip parent 11: handle 3 \
flow hash keys dst divisor 1024
Notes:
1) SFB default child qdisc is pfifo_fast. It can be changed by another
qdisc but a child qdisc MUST not drop a packet previously queued. This
is because SFB needs to handle a dequeued packet in order to maintain
its virtual queue states. pfifo_head_drop or CHOKe should not be used.
2) ECN is enabled by default, unlike RED/CHOKe/GRED

When list debugging is enabled, we aim to readably show list corruption
errors, and the basic list_add/list_del operations end up having extra
debugging code in them to do some basic validation of the list entries.
However, "list_del_init()" and "list_move[_tail]()" ended up avoiding
the debug code due to how they were written. This fixes that.
So the _next_ time we have list_move() problems with stale list entries,
we'll hopefully have an easier time finding them..

Uwe pointed out that my alarm based UIE emulation is not sufficient
to replace the older timer/polling based UIE emulation on devices
where there is no alarm irq. This causes rtc devices without alarms
to return -EINVAL to UIE ioctls. The fix is to re-instate the old
timer/polling method for devices without alarm irqs.
This patch reverts the following commits:
042620a018 - Remove UIE emulation
1daeddd596 - Cleanup removed UIE emulation declaration
b5cc8ca1c9 - Remove Kconfig symbol for UIE emulation
The emulation mode will still need to be wired-in with a following
patch before it will work.

Assigning a socket in timewait state to skb->sk can trigger
kernel oops, e.g. in nfnetlink_log, which does:
if (skb->sk) {
read_lock_bh(&skb->sk->sk_callback_lock);
if (skb->sk->sk_socket && skb->sk->sk_socket->file) ...
in the timewait case, accessing sk->sk_callback_lock and sk->sk_socket
is invalid.
Either all of these spots will need to add a test for sk->sk_state != TCP_TIME_WAIT,
or xt_TPROXY must not assign a timewait socket to skb->sk.
This does the latter.
If a TW socket is found, assign the tproxy nfmark, but skip the skb->sk assignment,
thus mimicking behaviour of a '-m socket .. -j MARK/ACCEPT' re-routing rule.
The 'SYN to TW socket' case is left unchanged -- we try to redirect to the
listener socket.

If we didn't have a routing cache, we would not be able to properly
propagate certain kinds of dynamic path attributes, for example
PMTU information and redirects.
The reason is that if we didn't have a routing cache, then there would
be no way to lookup all of the active cached routes hanging off of
sockets, tunnels, IPSEC bundles, etc.
Consider the case where we created a cached route, but no inetpeer
entry existed and also we were not asked to pre-COW the route metrics
and therefore did not force the creation a new inetpeer entry.
If we later get a PMTU message, or a redirect, and store this
information in a new inetpeer entry, there is no way to teach that
cached route about the newly existing inetpeer entry.
The facilities implemented here handle this problem.
First we create a generation ID. When we create a cached route of any
kind, we remember the generation ID at the time of attachment. Any
time we force-create an inetpeer entry in response to new path
information, we bump that generation ID.
The dst_ops->check() callback is where the knowledge of this event
is propagated. If the global generation ID does not equal the one
stored in the cached route, and the cached route has not attached
to an inetpeer yet, we look it up and attach if one is found. Now
that we've updated the cached route's information, we update the
route's generation ID too.
This clears the way for implementing PMTU and redirects directly in
the inetpeer cache. There is absolutely no need to consult cached
route information in order to maintain this information.
At this point nothing bumps the inetpeer genids, that comes in the
later changes which handle PMTUs and redirects using inetpeers.

Validity of the cached PMTU information is indicated by it's
expiration value being non-zero, just as per dst->expires.
The scheme we will use is that we will remember the pre-ICMP value
held in the metrics or route entry, and then at expiration time
we will restore that value.
In this way PMTU expiration does not kill off the cached route as is
done currently.
Redirect information is permanent, or at least until another redirect
is received.
