    net_sched: reintroduce dev->qdisc for use by sch_api · af356afa
    Patrick McHardy 提交于
    Currently the multiqueue integration with the qdisc API suffers from
    a few problems:
    
    - with multiple queues, all root qdiscs use the same handle. This means
      they can't be exposed to userspace in a backwards compatible fashion.
    
    - all API operations always refer to queue number 0. Newly created
      qdiscs are automatically shared between all queues, its not possible
      to address individual queues or restore multiqueue behaviour once a
      shared qdisc has been attached.
    
    - Dumps only contain the root qdisc of queue 0, in case of non-shared
      qdiscs this means the statistics are incomplete.
    
    This patch reintroduces dev->qdisc, which points to the (single) root qdisc
    from userspace's point of view. Currently it either points to the first
    (non-shared) default qdisc, or a qdisc shared between all queues. The
    following patches will introduce a classful dummy qdisc, which will be used
    as root qdisc and contain the per-queue qdiscs as children.
