+ tristate "Plug network traffic until release (PLUG)"
+ ---help---
+
+ This queuing discipline allows userspace to plug/unplug a network
+ output queue, using the netlink interface. When it receives an
+ enqueue command it inserts a plug into the outbound queue that
+ causes following packets to enqueue until a dequeue command arrives
+ over netlink, causing the plug to be removed and resuming the normal
+ packet flow.
+
+ This module also provides a generic "network output buffering"
+ functionality (aka output commit), wherein upon arrival of a dequeue
+ command, only packets up to the first plug are released for delivery.
+ The Remus HA project uses this module to enable speculative execution
+ of virtual machines by allowing the generated network output to be rolled
+ back if needed.
+
+ For more information, please refer to http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/Remus
+
+ Say Y here if you are using this kernel for Xen dom0 and
+ want to protect Xen guests with Remus.

+ * There are two ways to use this qdisc:
+ * 1. A simple "instantaneous" plug/unplug operation, by issuing an alternating

+ *
+ * 2. For network output buffering (a.k.a output commit) functionality.
+ * Output commit property is commonly used by applications using checkpoint
+ * based fault-tolerance to ensure that the checkpoint from which a system
+ * is being restored is consistent w.r.t outside world.
+ *
+ * Consider for e.g. Remus - a Virtual Machine checkpointing system,
+ * wherein a VM is checkpointed, say every 50ms. The checkpoint is replicated
+ * asynchronously to the backup host, while the VM continues executing the
+ * next epoch speculatively.
+ *
+ * The following is a typical sequence of output buffer operations:
+ * 1.At epoch i, start_buffer(i)
+ * 2. At end of epoch i (i.e. after 50ms):
+ * 2.1 Stop VM and take checkpoint(i).
+ * 2.2 start_buffer(i+1) and Resume VM
+ * 3. While speculatively executing epoch(i+1), asynchronously replicate
+ * checkpoint(i) to backup host.
+ * 4. When checkpoint_ack(i) is received from backup, release_buffer(i)
+ * Thus, this Qdisc would receive the following sequence of commands:
+ * TCQ_PLUG_BUFFER (epoch i)
+ * .. TCQ_PLUG_BUFFER (epoch i+1)
+ * ....TCQ_PLUG_RELEASE_ONE (epoch i)
