Geforce NOW QoS

[Morris]

Is "Geforce NOW QoS" Cake? The setup looks the same.

It’s an htb+fq_codel setup but has some awareness of TOS/DSCP.

Thank you Dave,

Not as good for general use. At least that's my view

Interesting. What immediately struck me was these two lines (here and here) which scan nvgfn_ch_rulelist:

    fprintf(f, "$TFA parent 1: prio 10 protocol ip u32 match ip protocol 17 0xff match ip dport %d 0xffff flowid 1:10\n", nvfgn_GetQoSChannelPort("vedio"));

    fprintf(f, "$TFAU parent 2: prio 10 protocol ip u32 match ip protocol 17 0xff match ip sport %d 0xffff flowid 2:10\n", nvfgn_GetQoSChannelPort("vedio"));

These appear to be typos because in nvgfn.c we can see they should be "video". I wonder how that's been effecting things.

Marketing can’t spell.

Marketing can’t spell.

If it were marketing it wouldn't be a problem, but as this is the programmers it seems to me that their typo means that QoS category will never work as intended.

Also not fixed in the 45581 GPL branch, so Asus must not be aware.

Amazing find and thread.

It’s threads like these that make me constantly return to this place.

On a GeForce Now-related note, has anyone had any success recreating this type of GFN-specific profile or behaviour on ASUS AC routers shipped without this feature?

Love,
