Thanks...the workarounds kinda suck IMO and we're still seeing issues on WRAPs (but not all of them!?!?!?!) so I won't be entirely surprised if you come back and say it still sucks ass. This appears to be a FreeBSD issue, on same hardware (Soekris 4801) on OpenBSD, this works like it's supposed to. I've spent at least 12 hours this last weekend tracking this crap down. The source code between FreeBSD and OpenBSD for ALTQ is line by line nearly identical, the major differences have to do with locking differences and minor other porting items. Here's what we've learned so far: 2/15/06 snapshot w/ upperlimit set sucks on WRAP and 4801 (sis driver) 2/15/06 snapshot w/ upperlimit set works fine on Nexcom 1030 w/ Intel nics (fxp driver) 2/15/06 snapshot w/o upperlimit set works fine on 4801 (sis driver) 2/15/06 snapshot w/o upperlimit set works fine on Nexcom 1030 w/ Intel nics (fxp driver) Beta2 w/o upperlimit set works fine on 4801 (sis driver) Beta2 w/o upperlimit set sucks on 2 of 3 WRAPs we have (sis driver) Beta2 w/o upperlimit set works fine on Nexcom 1030 w/ Intel nics (fxp driver) OpenBSD 3.9-beta works fine w/ upperlimit set on 4801 (sis driver) OpenBSD 3.9-beta works fine w/o upperlimit set on 4801 (sis driver) The removal of upperlimit sucks because that means we can't limit the bandwidth any queue is allowed. We're seeing evidence of a 10x multiplier bug, but upperlimit isn't exposed to the NICs - 960Kbit upperlimit gives me great Vonage calls (92 or 96Kbit codec, can't recall). 128Kbit upperlimit gives crappy calls as does 512Kbit or 768Kbit. To me this is pointing to a multiplier broken somewhere, but I haven't yet found it and it _appears_ to mainly affect the sis driver (although I wouldn't be surprised in the least if it didn't affect others). What would be most helpful right now is a report of people running b1 snapshots and have tried the shaper. What we need is the hardware you're running on: CPU NIC(s) Install type (embedded, pc, iso, etc) Whether it works or sucks ass I'll resend this request on the blog and as a seperate email later today.
