![]() Tracepoint trace_qdisc_enqueue() is introduced to trace skb at
the entrance of TC layer on TX side. This is similar to
trace_qdisc_dequeue():
1. For both we only trace successful cases. The failure cases
can be traced via trace_kfree_skb().
2. They are called at entrance or exit of TC layer, not for each
->enqueue() or ->dequeue(). This is intentional, because
we want to make trace_qdisc_enqueue() symmetric to
trace_qdisc_dequeue(), which is easier to use.
The return value of qdisc_enqueue() is not interesting here,
we have Qdisc's drop packets in ->dequeue(), it is impossible to
trace them even if we have the return value, the only way to trace
them is tracing kfree_skb().
We only add information we need to trace ring buffer. If any other
information is needed, it is easy to extend it without breaking ABI,
