But that way, introduction of LE does not fix much... I really think
with LE's existence ,CS1 should be put into the same tin as CS0/BE, for the
simple reason that currently CS1 is already in use both for priority below and
priority above CS0/BE, the only course forward avoiding priority inversions is
to treat CS1 like CS0.
As a case in point I remember that Dave Täht reported seeing oodles of
packets marked CS1 in his ingress some time in the past, packets that should
not be treated as bulk. Sure we can argue that anybody using DSCPs for priority
steering needs to re-map anyways, but that is not the logic behind cake's
default mapping.
And that CS1 to BE mapping should apply to all diffserv modes, that
offer a lower priority tier, no?
