Subject: Re: packet stuck in qdisc : patch proposal

All,

I confirm Eric's patch works well too, and it's better and clearer than mine.
So I think we should go for it, and the one from Guoju in addition.

@Eric : I see you are one of the networking maintainers, so I have a few questions for you :

a) are you going to take care of these patches directly yourself, or is there something Guoju or I should do to promote them ?

b) Can we expect to see them land in the mainline soon ?

c) Will they be backported to previous versions of the kernel ? Which ones ?

Thanks a lot, best,

V
