Hello,
I am looking at methods to rate limit a single socket to a specific
pipe or rate with FreeBSD. I would like to make an Apache module that
could do its outgoing rate limit *in* kernel, making the module very
simple, and more accurate by using the kernel todo the rate limiting.
I have been looking at Dummynet and pfil_hooks, but these seem to
operate only on an entire interface. I would like to have these operate
only on a socket fd that I designate. Ie a special setsockopt() would
put socket x into pipe a. This pipe 'a' was setup ahead of time to only
allow 512 kb/s.
Is this possible with FreeBSD? Do you have any suggestions on the best
way to proceed?
Thank you,
-Paul Querna
