You can specify the tx_queue_len when you create the veth device, if that can be your "default". tx_queue_len ties too much with qdisc probably due to historical reasons, ideally we should only specify the queue len via qdisc interface since at least a per-device tx_queue_len doesn't make much sense for those multiqueue or hierarchical qdisc's. It's hard to change without breaking existing scripts/code. Like David said, maybe you can add a new netdev flag saying not to have any qdisc even when tx_queue_len !=0, or let each device choose its default qdisc... -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
