Hello,

On most Ethernet switches there is an ability to configure scheduling
mechanism among egress queues. We can for example configure
"strict" or "WRR" disciplines.

Could anybody point me about Intel network controllers case?
Say we have 8 TX queues. How controller will transmit packets in
case of TX-overload? Are there any ability to influence this behavior?
The main idea is too shift all high priority traffic (mostly host management)
to dedicated queue. What we want is to emulate QoS-like behavior on
that dedicated queue when other 7 queues will be overloaded. Is that
possible?
