[LARTC] HTB broken in linux 2.4.20-rc2 ?

[LARTC] HTB broken in linux 2.4.20-rc2 ?

[Juergen Schmidt]

Hello,

I just tried to upgrade to linux 2.4.20-rc2 and found, that my scripts are
not working any more (they did with 2.4.18 + HTB patch).

It boils down to:

# tc qdisc add dev ppp0 root handle 1: htb default 12
RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

while

# tc qdisc add dev ppp0 root handle 1: cbq avpkt 1000 bandwidth 10mbit

still works fine.

Any ideas?

bye, ju

FYI: I did compile htb as loadable module and it is loaded.

I got HTB working with 2.4.20-rc1 yesterday. Make sure you're using the
latest iproute with HTB3 patches applied. (ss020116 + htb3 patches iirc)

Do I need those patches with the HTB included in the kernel?
Is HTB 2 or 3 in 2.4.20 ?

Everything worked fine with 2.4.18 + htb2 kernel patches

bye, juergen

You are right: the problem was the "old" tc which worked with htb2 but not
with htb3. Now everything works as expected.

thanks, ju

No, not if you use 2.4.20rcXX. It already includes HTB 3.7

It's not reality that's important, but how you perceive things.
