It doesn't really matter, my red patchset will change this to: #define MAX_DPs 16 #define GRED_VQ_MASK (MAX_DPs - 1) skb->tc_index = (skb->tc_index & ~GRED_VQ_MASK) | dp; We can cast GRED_VQ_MASK to u16 if needed. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
