I realize there is the fix in the first patch but it seems like if we are going to go that route then maybe we should update mq as well so that both of these qdiscs behave the same way. Either this should work like mq, or mq should work like this, but we shouldn't have them exposing different behaviors. > static const struct Qdisc_class_ops mqprio_class_ops = { > .graft = mqprio_graft, > .leaf = mqprio_leaf, > @@ -403,6 +409,7 @@ static const struct Qdisc_class_ops mqprio_class_ops = { > .walk = mqprio_walk, > .dump = mqprio_dump_class, > .dump_stats = mqprio_dump_class_stats, > + .select_queue = mqprio_select_queue, > }; > > static struct Qdisc_ops mqprio_qdisc_ops __read_mostly = { > -- > 2.14.2 > > _______________________________________________ > Intel-wired-lan mailing list > Intel-wired-lan@osuosl.org > https://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-wired-lan

Based on my understanding, the point I've made is that for mqprio the inner qdiscs are always 'related' to one of the Tx netdev_queues per design. Returning any other queue as a fallback seemed like going against that to me. I'm still inclined to say that we should keep this function as the patch is proposing, thus either returning the correct netdev_queue for a given handle, or NULL as a way to flag that something was 'wrong' with it. Returning queue #0 is misleading in that sense, imho. As for aligning mq_select_queue() with this approach, if my reasoning behind mqprio is correct and also applies to mq, I would be happy to send that fix as part our v7. What do you think? Thanks, Jesus

You could probably just add it to your first patch. That way if the user specifies a bad qdisc classid they don't get to just overwrite the qdisc on Tx queue 0. - Alex

Ok, I will send the fix then, but I'm just not sure if I'll send it together with the patch fixing qdisc_alloc(). Looks like a change that should be together with this one of after it, instead. Anyhow, it will be fixed in our v7. Thanks!
