I'm too tired to fully review this now, but could you please post the corresponding e1000 patch? From a quick look I'm guessing that this patch changes the behaviour of the prio qdisc from strict priority to whatever scheduling mechanism e1000 uses for its queues when the multiqueue config option is enabled, which might surprise people. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
