Any news on this? And by SQM egress, you mean egress from the router, right?
Currently I'm running Cake only on my 30mbit egress/upload, since my C7 can't do SQM on the 300mbit ingress/download. I have to throttle it back to 100-125 for it to not run out of CPU/IRQ, and that's just too much to give up. Luckily, the ingress doesn't bloat much, and I get something out of the managed egress.
I am rather interested in how much Fastpath could improve my 2 way SQM thresholds...
One cosmetic thing: if I understand this correctly, Fast Path is an in-kernel classifier, and has nothing to do with Qualcomm in terms of hardware dependency, so this is not in any way an implementation for hardware acceleration. In this term it is platform independent. I think this should be highlighted, because some can easily be mislead by the title that this is for Qualcomm SoCs only, while in fact it is generic. I wanted to thank for your hard work!
...if in some way it can be used on ingress. Otherwise, its not worth it, and I wouldn't want to disturb the home router/AP. Am I right in understanding that at this time, it can't?
You won't want my build. It is custom, bare minimum with no LuCi, no USB and PPP because I don't use them. Building one is simple, just include @gwlimSFE patch files.
Does the patch currently works with native ipv6 wan ? I tested on a WNDR3800 with only kmod-shortcut-fe and kmod-fast-classifier: sirq usage is still really high, arround 70% on a 100Mbps speedtest.
I also have a doubts on ipv6 as reports (/dev/sfe) only show ipv4 connections...
I'm using your patch and built with both modules: kmod-shortcut-fe and kmod-fast-classifier. Currently, there is no section sfe_ipv6 in dev. How can I help ?
