I support 3. I think I am mostly on Dave Tahts line. I am still sceptical that L4S is safe together with other traffic on todays Internet. We have everything from very shallow buffered FIFO (L2 switches) via various AQMs (both (non)flow aware, DSCP aware, future dual-Q etc) all the way up via deep buffered ones that might or might not support PIE/RED or something else, or just be stupid tail-drop ones. We have packet schedulers that might have hundreds of clients and vary the available bw becuase they're egressing on a variable speed medium (wifi with L1/L2 retransmits) inducing PDV on the flows etc. This is an extremely complex environment. I'd like to see all these tested. I am sympathetic with L4S goals and if it can be shown that L4S-enabled flows can interop fairly well (doesn't have to be perfect) in all the above cases we have in the wild Internet today, then I am slightly leaning towards 1/ below. It would be great if we could have a scenario where we safely could migrate to the kind of dual-Q scheduling with support for low-latency that L4S envisions. Some claim that a lot of scheduling on the Internet today is flow aware. My experience is quite the opposite. If I look at what's deployed, most of the time it's more or less stupid FIFO, if it's good then it's got limited queue depth and not seconds of buffering. Looking at the typical kind of devices that do speed conversion today, it's not going to be flow aware. Residential gateways, BNGs, wifi routers/APs etc. None of these typically does FQ. So for me to support L4S and ECT(1) as input signal, I'd like to see more test results for *all* these deployed "schedulers" with simulations of lots of different traffic mixes, lots of flows, low number of flows, asymmetric scenarios with dual-q one direction and not the other. Simulating queue stalls due to wifi output "stall" for ~100ms, what does this result in? 10ms? I see so far very idealistic testing trying to test what will happen in a complex world. I see this decision a going to with us for decades, so I'd like to make sure we understand it properly.
