ifb

The Intermediate Functional Block device is the successor to the IMQ iptables module that was never integrated. Advantage over current IMQ; cleaner in particular in SMP; with a _lot_ less code. Old Dummy device functionality is preserved while new one only kicks in if you use actions.
To use an IFB, you must have IFB support in your kernel (configuration option CONFIG_IFB). Assuming that you have a modular kernel, the name of the IFB module is 'ifb' and may be loaded using the command modprobe ifb (if you have modprobe installed) or insmod /path/to/module/ifb.

ip link set ifb0 up
ip link set ifb1 up
By default, two IFB devices (ifb0 and ifb1) are created

IFB Usage
As far as i know the reasons listed below is why people use IMQ. It would be nice to know of anything else that i missed.

qdiscs/policies that are per device as opposed to system wide. IMQ allows for sharing.
Allows for queueing incoming traffic for shaping instead of dropping. I am not aware of any study that shows policing is worse than shaping in achieving the end goal of rate control. I would be interested if anyone is experimenting. (re shaping vs policing: the desire for shaping comes more from the need to have complex rules like with htb)
Very interesting use: if you are serving p2p you may wanna give preference to your own localy originated traffic (when responses come back) vs someone using your system to do bittorent. So QoSing based on state comes in as the solution. What people did to achieve this was stick the IMQ somewhere prelocal hook. I think this is a pretty neat feature to have in Linux in general. (i.e not just for IMQ).
But I wont go back to putting netfilter hooks in the device to satisfy this. I also dont think its worth it hacking ifb some more to be
aware of say L3 info and play ip rule tricks to achieve this.

Instead the plan is to have a contrack related action. This action will selectively either query/create contrack state on incoming packets. Packets could then be redirected to ifb based on what happens (e.g. on incoming packets); if we find they are of known state we could send to a different queue than one which didnt have existing state. This all however is dependent on whatever rules the admin enters.

At the moment this function does not exist yet. I have decided instead of sitting on the patch to release it and then if theres pressure i will add this feature.

What you can do with ifb currently with actions

What you can do with ifb currently with actions

Lets say you are policing packets from alias 192.168.200.200/32 you dont want those to exceed 100kbps going out.

tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 u32 match ip src 192.168.200.200/32 flowid 1:2 action police rate 100kbit burst 90k drop

If you run tcpdump on eth0 you will see all packets going out with src 192.168.200.200/32 dropped or not

Extend the rule a little to see only the ones that made it out:

tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 u32  match ip src 192.168.200.200/32 flowid 1:2 action police rate 10kbit burst 90k drop  action mirred egress mirror dev ifb0

Now fire tcpdump on ifb0 to see only those packets ..

tcpdump -n -i ifb0 -x -e -t

Essentially a good debugging/logging inteRFace.

If you replace mirror with redirect, those packets will be blackholed and will never make it out. This redirect behavior changes with new patch (but not the mirror).

IFB Example

Many readers have found this page to be unhelpful in terms of expressing how IFB is useful and how it should be used usefully.

These examples are taken from a posting of Jamal at http://www.mail-archive.com/netdev@vger.kernel.org/msg04900.html

What this script will demonstrate is the following sequence:

any packet coming going out on eth0 10.0.0.229 is classified as class 1:10 and redirected to ifb0.
      on reaching ifb0 the packet is classified as class 1:2
      subjected to a token buffer shaping of rate 20kbit/s
      sent back to eth0
on coming back to eth0, the classificaction 1:10 is still valid and this packet is put through an HTB classifier which limits the rate to 256Kbps

What this script will demonstrate is the following sequence:
1) any packet coming going out on eth0 10.0.0.229 is classified as
class 1:10 and redirected to ifb0.
2) a) on reaching ifb0 the packet is classified as class 1:2
b) subjected to a token buffer shaping of rate 20kbit/s
c) sent back to eth0
3) on coming back to eth0, the classificaction 1:10 is still valid
and this packet is put through an HTB classifier which limits the rate
to 256Kbps

export TC="/sbin/tc"

$TC qdisc del dev ifb0 root handle 1: prio

A Little test (be careful if you are sshed in and are classifying on
that IP, counters may be not easy to follow)

IFB requirements

In order to use ifb you need:

Support for ifb on kernel (2.6.20 works OK)
      Menu option: Device drivers -> Network device support -> Intermediate Functional Block support
      Module name: ifb
Tc iproute2 with support of "actions" (2.6.20 - 20070313 works OK and package from Debian etch is outdated). You can download it from here: http://developer.osdl.org/dev/iproute2/download/

Ingress qdisc

All qdiscs discussed so far are egress qdiscs. Each interface however can also have an ingress qdisc which is not used to send packets out to the network adaptor. Instead, it allows you to apply tc filters to packets coming in over the interface, regardless of whether they have a local destination or are to be forwarded.

As the tc filters contain a full Token Bucket Filter implementation, and are also able to match on the kernel flow estimator, there is a lot of functionality available. This effectively allows you to police incoming traffic, before it even enters the IP stack.

14.4.1. Parameters & usage

The ingress qdisc itself does not require any parameters. It differs from other qdiscs in that it does not occupy the root of a device. Attach it like this:

# delete original
tc qdisc del dev eth0 ingress
tc qdisc del dev eth0 root

# add new qdisc and filter
tc qdisc add dev eth0 ingress
tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: protocol ip prio 50  u32 match ip src 0.0.0.0/0 police rate 2048kbps burst 1m drop flowid :1
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root tbf rate 2048kbps latency 50ms burst 1m

I played a bit with the ingress qdisc after seeing Patrick and Stef
talking about it and came up with a few notes and a few questions.

: The ingress qdisc itself has no parameters.  The only thing you can do
: is using the policers.  I have a link with a patch to extend this :
: http://www.cyberus.ca/~hadi/patches/action/ Maybe this can help.
:
: I have some more info about ingress in my mail files, but I have to
: sort it out and put it somewhere on docum.org.  But I still didn't
: found the the time to do so.

Regarding policers and the ingress qdisc.  I have never used them before
today, but have the following understanding.

About the ingress qdisc:

  - ingress qdisc (known as "ffff:") can't have any children classes    (hence the existence of IMQ)
  - the only thing you can do with the ingress qdisc is attach filters

About filtering on the ingress qdisc:

  - since there are no classes to which to direct the packets, the only reasonable option (reasonable, indeed!) is to drop the packets
  - with clever use of filtering, you can limit particular traffic signatures to particular uses of your bandwidth

QoS Using ifb and ingress qdisc
Add some qdisc/class/filter to eth0/ifb0/ifb1

tc qdisc add dev eth0 ingress 2>/dev/null

# ingress filter
tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: protocol ip prio 10 u32 match u32 0 0 flowid 1:1  action mirred egress redirect dev ifb0
# egress filter
tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 u32 match u32 0 0 flowid 1:1  action mirred egress redirect dev ifb1
