Hello, I am working on the problem appearing below, and I was wondering if there is an "off the shelf" solution to it - something which wouldnt require too much writing/modification of the kernel code. >From a linux router, I need to be able to generate a periodic stream of packets in as real time a manner as possible. The router is diffserv capable, and there might be an arbitrary nesting of traffic classes at the outgoing device. Independent of the other traffic, the router should generate the periodic flow, so it doesnt help to just call dev_queue_xmit periodically. I need to ensure that the packet does go out as soon as the period is over. Is there an easy way to do this? (off the shelf) - like somehow classifying the internally generated packets as the highest priority in a sched_prio Qdisc and calling dev_queue_xmit periodically? Or an easier way? tia, akshay __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!
