Hallo Hendrik,
nette Idee! Aber ich sag's mal lieber gleich explizit: Wir machen keinen
"fork" vom OpenBSD Development. Soll hei?en, auch wenn Dein Patch
einwandfrei l?uft wird er nur aufgenommen nachdem er in OpenBSD ist. Ich
hoffe das bremst Deinen Enthusiasmus und Ideenreichtum nicht! Wir machen
nat?rlich gerne "Werbung" f?r gute Ideen, aber wie gesagt wir sind ein Port
kein Fork.
Keep the good work up! Gru?,
Max

Subject: [pf4freebsd] pf hack: use scrub rule to set TOS bits
Hi!
I've got pf 1.59 w/ ALTQ running and now get into the situation
that outgoing packets are queued correctly but I don't have
the chance to configure the opposite side (DSL access concentrator, Cisco
router).
I'm just hacking up pfctl and pf to recognize a rule like this:
scrub out on $ext_if proto icmp from $internal to any tos 0x10 keep state
or
scrub out on $ext_if proto udp from $internal to any port 4000 tos 0x10
keep state
This will set the ip_tos bits to 0x10 (if not set otherwise). I still
have to conduct some tests (prolly using nemesis-icmp) to see whether
my upstream routers will return the answer with the same tos bits.
In case a) the destination host and b) the upstream router both make
their queuing decisions based on the tos bits we might manage to
influence our upstream routers behaviour and finally play Diablo
while doing large <insert random traffic hogs> downloads.
Since weather is nice and I have other things to hack on this might
take a few days until it proofs stable.
Just FYI, Hendrik
