A new release of ALTQ is available from http://www.csl.sony.co.jp/~kjc/software.html or ftp://ftp.csl.sony.co.jp/pub/kjc/altq-2.1.tar.gz -Kenjiro from README ALTQ -- Version 2.1 December 29, 1999 This is a release of Alternate Queueing for BSD UNIX. ALTQ provides queueing schemes required to realize resource-sharing and quality of service. The ALTQ release is intended to be a flexible platform to promote network research and gain field experience. What's New since version 2.0: - altqstat: discipline independent stat program - improved link-sharing performance for ethernet - rsvp support using CBQ and HFSC - FreeBSD-3.4R based. 2.2.8R and 3.3R are also supported. - initial support of OpenBSD-2.6 (in addition to NetBSD-1.4.1) only i386 architecture is supported IMPORTANT CHANGES since 2.0: directory reorganization: as we now have multiple platforms and the number of disciplines is increasing, it is time to reorganize the directory configuration. 1. a new kernel directory, "sys-altq/altq", is created. altq kernel files previously placed under "net" and "netinet" are moved into "sys-altq/altq". ***THIS CHANGE AFFECTS ALL 3RD PARTY SOURCE CODE*** please update #include path! (e.g., #include <netinet/altq.h> --> #include <altq/altq.h>) 2. a device file directory, "/dev/altq", is create. altq device files previously placed under "/dev" are moved into "/dev/altq". (e.g., /dev/cbq --> /dev/altq/cbq) ***DON'T FORGET TO RUN MAKEDEV.altq*** 3. discipline specific programs are no longer required. they are placed under "legacy-tools" directory. because of the above changes, sources (and binaries) for altq-2.0 are NOT COMPATIBLE with altq-2.1. The following items are still missing in 2.1. - more drivers for NetBSD - cpu architecture other than i386 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
