	prompt "Packet scheduler clock source"
	depends on NET_SCHED
	default NET_SCH_CLK_JIFFIES
	help
	  Packet schedulers need a monotonic clock that increments at a static
	  rate. The kernel provides several suitable interfaces, each with
	  different properties:
	  
	  - high resolution (us or better)
	  - fast to read (minimal locking, no i/o access)
	  - synchronized on all processors
	  - handles cpu clock frequency changes

	  but nothing provides all of the above.

config NET_SCH_CLK_JIFFIES
	bool "Timer interrupt"
	help
	  Say Y here if you want to use the timer interrupt (jiffies) as clock
	  source. This clock source is fast, synchronized on all processors and
	  handles cpu clock frequency changes, but its resolution is too low
	  for accurate shaping except at very low speed.

config NET_SCH_CLK_GETTIMEOFDAY
	bool "gettimeofday"
	help
	  Say Y here if you want to use gettimeofday as clock source. This clock
	  source has high resolution, is synchronized on all processors and
	  handles cpu clock frequency changes, but it is slow.

	  Choose this if you need a high resolution clock source but can't use
	  the CPU's cycle counter.

config NET_SCH_CLK_CPU
	bool "CPU cycle counter"
	depends on X86_TSC || X86_64 || ALPHA || SPARC64 || PPC64 || IA64
	help
	  Say Y here if you want to use the CPU's cycle counter as clock source.
	  This is a cheap and high resolution clock source, but on some
	  architectures it is not synchronized on all processors and doesn't
	  handle cpu clock frequency changes.

	  The useable cycle counters are:

	  	x86/x86_64	- Timestamp Counter
		alpha		- Cycle Counter
		sparc64		- %ticks register
		ppc64		- Time base
		ia64		- Interval Time Counter

	  Choose this if your CPU's cycle counter is working properly.

config NET_SCH_CBQ
	tristate "CBQ packet scheduler"
	depends on NET_SCHED
	---help---
	  Say Y here if you want to use the Class-Based Queueing (CBQ) packet
	  scheduling algorithm for some of your network devices.  This
	  algorithm classifies the waiting packets into a tree-like hierarchy
	  of classes; the leaves of this tree are in turn scheduled by
	  separate algorithms (called "disciplines" in this context).

	  See the top of <file:net/sched/sch_cbq.c> for references about the
	  CBQ algorithm.

	  CBQ is a commonly used scheduler, so if you're unsure, you should
	  say Y here. Then say Y to all the queueing algorithms below that you
	  want to use as CBQ disciplines.  Then say Y to "Packet classifier
	  API" and say Y to all the classifiers you want to use; a classifier
	  is a routine that allows you to sort your outgoing traffic into
	  classes based on a certain criterion.

	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called sch_cbq.

config NET_SCH_HTB
	tristate "HTB packet scheduler"
	depends on NET_SCHED
	---help---
	  Say Y here if you want to use the Hierarchical Token Buckets (HTB)
	  packet scheduling algorithm for some of your network devices. See
	  <http://luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/htb/> for complete manual and
	  in-depth articles.

	  HTB is very similar to the CBQ regarding its goals however is has 
	  different properties and different algorithm.

	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called sch_htb.

config NET_SCH_HFSC
	tristate "HFSC packet scheduler"
	depends on NET_SCHED
	---help---
	  Say Y here if you want to use the Hierarchical Fair Service Curve
	  (HFSC) packet scheduling algorithm for some of your network devices.

	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called sch_hfsc.

#tristate '  H-PFQ packet scheduler' CONFIG_NET_SCH_HPFQ
config NET_SCH_ATM
	tristate "ATM pseudo-scheduler"
	depends on NET_SCHED && ATM
	---help---
	  Say Y here if you want to use the ATM pseudo-scheduler.  This
	  provides a framework for invoking classifiers (aka "filters"), which
	  in turn select classes of this queuing discipline.  Each class maps
	  the flow(s) it is handling to a given virtual circuit (see the top of
	  <file:net/sched/sch_atm.c>).

	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called sch_atm.

config NET_SCH_PRIO
	tristate "The simplest PRIO pseudoscheduler"
	depends on NET_SCHED
	help
	  Say Y here if you want to use an n-band priority queue packet
	  "scheduler" for some of your network devices or as a leaf discipline
	  for the CBQ scheduling algorithm. If unsure, say Y.

	tristate "RED queue"
	depends on NET_SCHED
	help
	  Say Y here if you want to use the Random Early Detection (RED)
	  packet scheduling algorithm for some of your network devices (see
	  the top of <file:net/sched/sch_red.c> for details and references
	  about the algorithm).

	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called sch_red.

config NET_SCH_SFQ
	tristate "SFQ queue"
	depends on NET_SCHED
	---help---
	  Say Y here if you want to use the Stochastic Fairness Queueing (SFQ)
	  packet scheduling algorithm for some of your network devices or as a
	  leaf discipline for the CBQ scheduling algorithm (see the top of
	  <file:net/sched/sch_sfq.c> for details and references about the SFQ
	  algorithm).

	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called sch_sfq.

config NET_SCH_TEQL
	tristate "TEQL queue"
	depends on NET_SCHED
	---help---
	  Say Y here if you want to use the True Link Equalizer (TLE) packet
	  scheduling algorithm for some of your network devices or as a leaf
	  discipline for the CBQ scheduling algorithm. This queueing
	  discipline allows the combination of several physical devices into
	  one virtual device. (see the top of <file:net/sched/sch_teql.c> for
	  details).

	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called sch_teql.

config NET_SCH_TBF
	tristate "TBF queue"
	depends on NET_SCHED
	help
	  Say Y here if you want to use the Simple Token Bucket Filter (TBF)
	  packet scheduling algorithm for some of your network devices or as a
	  leaf discipline for the CBQ scheduling algorithm (see the top of
	  <file:net/sched/sch_tbf.c> for a description of the TBF algorithm).

	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called sch_tbf.

config NET_SCH_GRED
	tristate "GRED queue"
	depends on NET_SCHED
	help
	  Say Y here if you want to use the Generic Random Early Detection
	  (RED) packet scheduling algorithm for some of your network devices
	  (see the top of <file:net/sched/sch_red.c> for details and
	  references about the algorithm).

	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called sch_gred.

config NET_SCH_DSMARK
	tristate "Diffserv field marker"
	depends on NET_SCHED
	help
	  Say Y if you want to schedule packets according to the
	  Differentiated Services architecture proposed in RFC 2475.
	  Technical information on this method, with pointers to associated
	  RFCs, is available at <http://www.gta.ufrj.br/diffserv/>.

	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called sch_dsmark.

config NET_SCH_NETEM
	tristate "Network emulator"
	depends on NET_SCHED
	help
	  Say Y if you want to emulate network delay, loss, and packet
	  re-ordering. This is often useful to simulate networks when
	  testing applications or protocols.

	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
	  will be called sch_netem.

	  If unsure, say N.

config NET_SCH_INGRESS
	tristate "Ingress Qdisc"
	depends on NET_SCHED 
	help
	  If you say Y here, you will be able to police incoming bandwidth
	  and drop packets when this bandwidth exceeds your desired rate.
	  If unsure, say Y.

	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called sch_ingress.

config NET_QOS
	bool "QoS support"
	depends on NET_SCHED
	---help---
	  Say Y here if you want to include Quality Of Service scheduling
	  features, which means that you will be able to request certain
	  rate-of-flow limits for your network devices.

	  This Quality of Service (QoS) support will enable you to use
	  Differentiated Services (diffserv) and Resource Reservation Protocol
	  (RSVP) on your Linux router if you also say Y to "Packet classifier
	  API" and to some classifiers below. Documentation and software is at
	  <http://diffserv.sourceforge.net/>.

	  Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
	  kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
	  the questions about QoS support.

config NET_ESTIMATOR
	bool "Rate estimator"
	depends on NET_QOS
	help
	  In order for Quality of Service scheduling to work, the current
	  rate-of-flow for a network device has to be estimated; if you say Y
	  here, the kernel will do just that.

config NET_CLS
	bool "Packet classifier API"
	depends on NET_SCHED
	---help---
	  The CBQ scheduling algorithm requires that network packets which are
	  scheduled to be sent out over a network device be classified
	  according to some criterion. If you say Y here, you will get a
	  choice of several different packet classifiers with the following
	  questions.

	  This will enable you to use Differentiated Services (diffserv) and
	  Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) on your Linux router.
	  Documentation and software is at
	  <http://diffserv.sourceforge.net/>.

config NET_CLS_TCINDEX
	tristate "TC index classifier"
	depends on NET_CLS
	help
	  If you say Y here, you will be able to classify outgoing packets
	  according to the tc_index field of the skb. You will want this
	  feature if you want to implement Differentiated Services using
	  sch_dsmark. If unsure, say Y.

	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called cls_tcindex.

config NET_CLS_ROUTE4
	tristate "Routing table based classifier"
	depends on NET_CLS
	select NET_CLS_ROUTE
	help
	  If you say Y here, you will be able to classify outgoing packets
	  according to the route table entry they matched. If unsure, say Y.

config NET_CLS_IND
	bool "classify input device (slows things u32/fw) "
	depends on NET_CLS_U32 || NET_CLS_FW
	help
	  This option will be killed eventually when a 
          metadata action appears because it slows things a little
          Available only for u32 and fw classifiers.
	  Requires a new iproute2
	  You MUST NOT turn this on if you dont have an update iproute2.

config NET_CLS_RSVP
	tristate "Special RSVP classifier"
	depends on NET_CLS && NET_QOS
	---help---
	  The Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) permits end systems to
	  request a minimum and maximum data flow rate for a connection; this
	  is important for real time data such as streaming sound or video.

	  Say Y here if you want to be able to classify outgoing packets based
	  on their RSVP requests.

	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called cls_rsvp.

config NET_CLS_RSVP6

	  request a minimum and maximum data flow rate for a connection; this
	  is important for real time data such as streaming sound or video.

	  Say Y here if you want to be able to classify outgoing packets based
	  on their RSVP requests and you are using the new Internet Protocol
	  IPv6 as opposed to the older and more common IPv4.

	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called cls_rsvp6.

config NET_CLS_ACT
	bool "Packet ACTION"
	depends on EXPERIMENTAL && NET_CLS && NET_QOS
	---help---
	This option requires you have a new iproute2. It enables
	tc extensions which can be used with tc classifiers.
	Only the u32 and fw classifiers are supported at the moment.
	  You MUST NOT turn this on if you dont have an update iproute2.

config NET_ACT_POLICE
	tristate "Policing Actions"
        depends on NET_CLS_ACT 
        ---help---
        If you are using a newer iproute2 select this one, otherwise use one
	below to select a policer.
