This looks great to me. Frankly, I think now that we have ktime and all of the proper generic infrastructure to do this stuff properly, I think we should just use ktime for the packet scheduler across the board and just delete all of that old by-hand timekeeping selection crap from pkt_sched.h - 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
