Merge branch 'sch_cake-leaf-qdisc-fixes'
Toke Høiland-Jørgensen says: ==================== sched: Fix qdisc interactions exposed by using sch_cake as a leaf qdisc This series fixes a couple of issues exposed by running sch_cake as a leaf qdisc in an HFSC tree, which were discovered and reported by Pete Heist. The interaction between CAKE's GSO splitting and the parent qdisc's notion of its own queue length could cause queue stalls. While investigating the report, I also noticed that several qdiscs would dereference the skb pointer after dequeue, which is potentially problematic since the GSO splitting code also frees the original skb. See the individual patches in the series for details. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
