This was taken into consideration, and I did reply that my concern for
doing that could cause stale data in the skb if the queue mapping
changed.
This is not a problem.
Since the -enqueue function stores
This is not a problem.
Since the -enqueue function stores references to the SKBs,
any change of the dev-qdisc has to flush those references
somehow, and it is at that point that you can fixup the skb
queue mappings.
This happens via invoking the qdisc-ops-reset() method.
Thanks

Peter is right: this is fully used by schedulers (prio,

It seems expensive to change all the skb's if this type of
event occurs,
The reset functions have to walk all the SKBs anyways.

Hi,
I bought a HanfTek UMT-010 dvb-T usb stick, so I compiled yesterday's
linus' git tree (2.6.21-rc3) and downloaded the firmware from
linuxtv.org. The driver loads fine :
