Eric Dumazet 39d010504e net_sched: sch_fq: add horizon attribute
QUIC servers would like to use SO_TXTIME, without having CAP_NET_ADMIN,
to efficiently pace UDP packets.

As far as sch_fq is concerned, we need to add safety checks, so
that a buggy application does not fill the qdisc with packets
having delivery time far in the future.

This patch adds a configurable horizon (default: 10 seconds),
and a configurable policy when a packet is beyond the horizon
at enqueue() time:
- either drop the packet (default policy)
- or cap its delivery time to the horizon.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
