Thanks Zoli, every time you have given very well detailed answers.
I will consider that and will let you know .

Hi Zoltan
Yes , i successfully achieved good results using tc tools, it could do
the job and the performance was great. But my primary goal is to make
a study about the of performance impact of the weight parameter.
It must be noted that Xen use NAPI, and on dom0 every vif is treated
in the sam
My main idea was to adapt the the function of static int
change_weight(struct net_device *net, unsigned long new_weight) and
static ssize_t store_weight(struct device *dev, struct
device_attribute *attr, const char *buf, size_t len) which are present
on kernel 2.6.21 . In this kernel we can change
back to control napi weight with sysfs is
very attractive.
Do you have any idea what must be changed to achieve this supplementary control?

Hello
I am working to allow controlling napi weight of virtual interfaces on
xen using sysfs.
If may i ask, is it achievable since NAPI interface structure in
current kernels is managed by the driver?
Please, any help or idea is very appreciated.

Hello
I am trying to adjust the of Stephen Hemminger patch (
http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=111773621018096&w=2 ), suporting
napi weight changes for virtual paravirtualized network interfaces
like xen vif (since they use napi now) on kernel 3.4.1.
The changes are listed below.
napi-sysfs/net
Thanks Ian for your helpful answer, you are right that is on Linux side but
to clear my idea , the goal is to prioritize traffic that comes from
different guest, for example if guest_1 is used for a voip server than it
would be reasonable to schedule first the vif guest_1 before other guests.
The
weighted round robin which can give more scheduling time to a vif
that was used by a voip-server guest. I would like to know that which
module or function is responsible for scheduling vif on dom0 ?
Thanks

Hi
I am working for the msc thesis to improve the performance on network
for guest domains that uses real-time services like voip or video
streaming servers , i have an idea to implement a network scheduler on
network backend, the schedulers may be weighted fair queuing or weighted
round robi
