The ideal would be to have public bits that were intended to be interpreted by (as you say, visible to) those layers so any L2 could adapted appropriately without reinventing the wheel.
It isn’t just the local radio firmware that one needs to worry about—it is also the basestation(s) that may be “helping”.

Separately, but also important, is being able to get signals from the application about what tradeoffs should be at the network. I believe that this dovetails into many of the multipath issues, btw.

A couple potentially interesting params are:
  A bit to say please don’t HoL block
  Some kind of mechanism(s) to bound retries (e.g. “don’t retry bit”, but that is obviously not as expressive as throw out packet older than X microseconds)

Hi,

I can't answer for Alan, but my belief is yes.  Client wifi stacks sometimes also do some reordering(and introduce the corresponding latency), so if we could design an indication that in-order delivery has no value, it could be fairly widely applicable.

That being said, I don't know what the right mechanism is?  Would we need something visible to a network or can we get away with a socket option that propagates to the local 5G network or Wifi firmware when possible?

Hi Kirill, Alan,

I could not attend the call this week and wont be able to attend this side meeting either.

But I had a general question about the performance of all such QUIC based protocols over wireless. Typically, the 5G and WiFI MAC layers deliver frames in-order which sort of recreates the HOL blocking problem at lower layers. I would expect this to in turn prevent the QUIC protocol to achieve its full performance gains at least in some congested network scenarios. Considering that in-order delivery is made optional in 5G PDCP, I was wondering if there could be a value to have some signaling defined in the QUIC (or RUSH ?) protocol that would allow lower layers to make better decision about whether to enable/disable in-order delivery for certain streams.

I apologize in advance if this is not the right venue to ask questions.

Regards,
Dibakar
