+# QoS Hierarchical Scheduler    {#qos_doc}
+
+The Quality-of-Service (QoS) scheduler performs egress-traffic management by
+prioritizing the transmission of the packets of different type services and
+subcribers based on the Service Level Agreements (SLAs). The QoS scheduler can
+be enabled on one or more NIC output interfaces depending upon the
+requirement.
+
+
+## Overview
+
+The QoS schdeuler supports a number of scheduling and shaping levels which
+construct hierarchical-tree. The first level in the hierarchy is port (i.e.
+the physical interface) that constitutes the root node of the tree. The
+subsequent level is subport which represents the group of the
+users/subscribers. The individual user/subscriber is represented by the pipe
+at the next level. Each user can have different traffic type based on the
+criteria of specific loss rate, jitter, and latency. These traffic types are
+represented at the traffic-class level in the form of different traffic-
+classes. The last level contains number of queues which are grouped together
+to host the packets of the specific class type traffic.
+
+The QoS scheduler implementation requires flow classification, enqueue  and
+dequeue operations. The flow classification is mandatory stage for HQoS where
+incoming packets are classified by mapping the packet fields information to
+5-tuple (HQoS subport, pipe, traffic class, queue within traffic class, and
+color) and storing that information in mbuf sched field. The enqueue operation
+uses this information to determine the queue for storing the packet, and at
+this stage, if the specific queue is full, QoS drops the packet. The dequeue
+operation consists of scheduling the packet based on its length and available
+credits, and handing over the scheduled packet to the output interface.
+
+For more information on QoS Scheduler, please refer DPDK Programmer's Guide-
+http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/prog_guide/qos_framework.html
+
+
+### QoS Schdeuler Parameters
+
+Following illustrates the default HQoS configuration for each 10GbE output
+port:
+
+Single subport (subport 0):
+  - Subport rate set to 100% of port rate
+  - Each of the 4 traffic classes has rate set to 100% of port rate
+
+4K pipes per subport 0 (pipes 0 .. 4095) with identical configuration:
+  - Pipe rate set to 1/4K of port rate
+  - Each of the 4 traffic classes has rate set to 100% of pipe rate
+  - Within each traffic class, the byte-level WRR weights for the 4 queues are set to 1:1:1:1
+

+### DPDK QoS Scheduler Integration in VPP
+
+The Hierarchical Quaity-of-Service (HQoS) scheduler object could be seen as
+part of the logical NIC output interface. To enable HQoS on specific output
+interface, vpp startup.conf file has to be configured accordingly. The output
+interface that requires HQoS, should have "hqos" parameter specified in dpdk
+section. Another optional parameter "hqos-thread"  has been defined which can
+be used to associate the output interface with specific hqos thread. In cpu
+section of the config file, "corelist-hqos-threads" is introduced to assign
+logical cpu cores to run the HQoS threads. A HQoS thread can run multiple HQoS
+objects each associated with different output interfaces. All worker threads
+instead of writing packets to NIC TX queue directly, write the packets to a
+software queues. The hqos_threads read the software queues, and enqueue the
+packets to HQoS objects, as well as dequeue packets from HQOS objects and
+write them to NIC output interfaces. The worker threads need to be able to
+send the packets to any output interface, therefore, each HQoS object
+associated with NIC output interface should have software queues equal to
+worker threads count.
+
+Following illustrates the sample startup configuration file with 4x worker
+threads feeding 2x hqos threads that handle each QoS scheduler for 1x output
+interface.
+
+```
+dpdk {
+  socket-mem 16384,16384
+
+  dev 0000:02:00.0 {
+    num-rx-queues 2
+    hqos
+  }
+  dev 0000:06:00.0 {
+    num-rx-queues 2
+    hqos
+  }
+
+  num-mbufs 1000000
+}
+
+cpu {
+  main-core 0
+  corelist-workers  1, 2, 3, 4
+  corelist-hqos-threads  5, 6
+}
+```
+
+
+### QoS scheduler CLI Commands
+
+Each QoS scheduler instance is initialised with default parameters required to
+configure hqos port, subport, pipe and queues. Some of the parameters can be
+re-configured in run-time through CLI commands.
+
+
+#### Configuration
+
+Following commands can be used to configure QoS scheduler parameters.
+
+The command below can be used to set the subport level parameters such as
+token bucket rate (bytes per seconds), token bucket size (bytes), traffic
+class rates (bytes per seconds) and token update period (Milliseconds).
+
+```
+set dpdk interface hqos subport <if-name> subport <n> [rate <n>]
+    [bktsize <n>] [tc0 <n>] [tc1 <n>] [tc2 <n>] [tc3 <n>] [period <n>]
+```
+
+For setting the pipe profile, following command can be used.    
+
+```
+set dpdk interface hqos pipe <if-name> subport <n> pipe <n> profile <n>
+```
+
+To assign QoS scheduler instance to the specific thread, following command can
+be used.
+
+```
+set dpdk interface hqos placement <if-name> thread <n>
+```
+
+The command below is used to set the packet fields required for classifiying
+the incoming packet. As a result of classification process,     packet field
+information will be mapped to 5 tuples (subport, pipe, traffic class, pipe,
+color) and stored in packet mbuf.
+
+```
+set dpdk interface hqos pktfield <if-name> id <n> offset <n> mask <n>
+```
+
+The DSCP table entries used for idenfiying the traffic class and queue can be set using the command below;   
+
+```  
+set dpdk interface hqos tctbl <if-name> entry <n> tc <n> queue <n>
+```
+
+
+#### Show Command
+
+The QoS Scheduler configuration can displayed using the command below.
+

+### QoS Scheduler Binary APIs
+
+This section explans the available binary APIs for configuring QoS scheduler
+parameters in run-time.
+
+The following API can be used to set the pipe profile of a pipe that belongs
+to a given subport:
+
+```
+sw_interface_set_dpdk_hqos_pipe rx <intfc> | sw_if_index <id>
+    subport <subport-id> pipe <pipe-id> profile <profile-id>
+```
+
+The data structures used for set the pipe profile parameter are as follows;
+
+```
+  /** \\brief DPDK interface HQoS pipe profile set request
+    @param client_index - opaque cookie to identify the sender
+    @param context - sender context, to match reply w/ request
+    @param sw_if_index - the interface

+```
+
+The following API can be used to set the subport level parameters, for
+example- token bucket rate (bytes per seconds), token bucket size (bytes),
+traffic class rate (bytes per seconds) and tokens update period.
+
+```
+sw_interface_set_dpdk_hqos_subport rx <intfc> | sw_if_index <id>

+```
+
+The data structures used for set the subport level parameter are as follows;
+
+```
+  /** \\brief DPDK interface HQoS subport parameters set request

+  };
+
+  /** \\brief DPDK interface HQoS subport parameters set reply

+  */
+  define sw_interface_set_dpdk_hqos_subport_reply {
+    u32 context;
+    i32 retval;
+  };
+```
+
+The following API can be used set the DSCP table entry. The DSCP table have
+64 entries to map the packet DSCP field onto traffic class and hqos input
+queue.
+
+```
+sw_interface_set_dpdk_hqos_tctbl rx <intfc> | sw_if_index <id> 
+    entry <n> tc <n> queue <n>
+```
+
+The data structures used for setting DSCP table entries are given below.
