Hi, I've came across the behavior where adding a child qdisc and then deleting it again makes the networking dysfunctional (I guess that's because all of a sudden there is absolutely no working qdisc on the device, although there originally was a default one in the parent).
In a nutshell, is this expected behavior or bug? ===== jikos:~ # tc qdisc show qdisc tbf 10: dev eth0 root refcnt 2 rate 800Mbit burst 131000b lat 1.0ms jikos:~ # ping -c 1 nix.cz | head -2 PING nix.cz (195.47.235.3) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from info.nix.cz (195.47.235.3): icmp_seq=1 ttl=89 time=1.59 ms jikos:~ # tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 10:1 sfq jikos:~ # tc qdisc show qdisc tbf 10: dev eth0 root refcnt 2 rate 800Mbit burst 131000b lat 1.0ms qdisc sfq 8008: dev eth0 parent 10:1 limit 127p quantum 1514b depth 127 divisor 1024 jikos:~ # ping -c 1 nix.cz | head -2 PING nix.cz (195.47.235.3) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from info.nix.cz (195.47.235.3): icmp_seq=1 ttl=89 time=1.67 ms jikos:~ # tc qdisc del dev eth0 parent 10:1 sfq jikos:~ # tc qdisc show qdisc tbf 10: dev eth0 root refcnt 2 rate 800Mbit burst 131000b lat 1.0ms jikos:~ # ping -c 1 nix.cz | head -2 PING nix.cz (195.47.235.3) 56(84) bytes of data.
