Topic: where i get started for traffic shaping using openwrt

The content of this topic has been archived on 28 Apr 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

Hello.
Now, I have project.
project's goal is related with StreamBoost of Qualcom


so in this project, i will attempt to scheduling of devices
for example, there are 2 devices(A,B) connected to Router via ethernet cable.
'A' device is doing video streaming(so 'A' needs high Bandwidth & priority)
'B' device is doing web browsing(so 'B' do not need to use High bandwidth & priority)
at this moment, what my custom router have to do is that it give higher bandwidth & priority to 'A' device.

For this router, I develop my router using openwrt.
Until Now, I succeed making firmware image file for my target device using openwrt's build system.
(make menuconfig for my target device -> make -> Get custom firmware image file)

But, Now I wondering what i have to do next step.
I think that i should treat kernel source code.(especially source code of linux/kernel/network)
But i do not now how to treat kerenl code in openwrt.
(I can't find C code in openwrt's build system.)

in the end, i wanna know that i wanna develop Router related with traffic shaping
but i don't know where i get started.
i need any idea, any advice.
