Peter,

I'm aware of the PD layer and that is not the issue. The problem is that there 
is no common value to report across different PD layers, as each architecture 
may have different number of queues involved, etc. Trying to find a common 
value to report to IPGs across various PDs would involve some PD specific logic 
and that is the part I'm referring to and I would like NOT to get into.


I’m sorry that scares you.  It would seem like an initial implementation might be to 
take the min of the free space of the queues leading from the >interface to the 
CPU. I grant you that some additional sophistication may be necessary, but I suspect

I'm not scared of polynomial evaluation, but the fact that my IGP implementation is dependent on the PD specifics, which are not generally available and need to be custom built for each PD specifically. I always thought a good IGP implementation is PD agnostic.

thanks,
Peter
