In an early RFC series [1], we proposed a way to support frame preemption. I'm not
sure if you have considered it before implementing this other proposal based on
ethtool interface so I thought it would be a good idea to bring that up to your
attention, just in case.
In that initial proposal, Frame Preemption feature is configured via taprio
qdisc. For example:
$ tc qdisc add dev IFACE parent root handle 100 taprio \
num_tc 3 \
map 2 2 1 0 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 \
queues 1@0 1@1 2@2 \
preemption 0 1 1 1 \
base-time 10000000 \
sched-entry S 01 300000 \
sched-entry S 02 300000 \
sched-entry S 04 400000 \
clockid CLOCK_TAI
It also aligns with the gate control operations Set-And-Hold-MAC and
Set-And-Release-MAC that can be set via 'sched-entry' (see Table 8.7 from
802.1Q-2018 for further details.
Please share your thoughts on this.
Regards,
Andre
