[LARTC] Interesting oopses...

[Justin Schoeman <justin@expertron.co.za>]

OK - this is starting to get frustrating... Are there any known issues 
with 2.6.9 and traffic shaping?  I am using 2.6.9 with geoip 20041115, 
and get odd oopses.  The following script oopses my box:

-----------------------------------------------------

#!/bin/sh -x

IFOUT='eth1'
IFIN='eth0'

TC='/sbin/tc'
IPT='/usr/local/sbin/iptables'

# BW definitions:
# units of kbit/s

NETBW\x10000
OUTBW\x116
INBW\x116

# Clear old shapers...
echo "Clearing old shapers..."
$TC qdisc del dev $IFIN root 2> /dev/null > /dev/null
$TC qdisc del dev $IFOUT root 2> /dev/null > /dev/null

# Clear old iptables...
echo "Clearing old iptables..."
$IPT -t mangle -F POSTROUTING
$IPT -t mangle -F NATI
$IPT -t mangle -X NATI
$IPT -t mangle -N NATI
$IPT -t mangle -F INAT
$IPT -t mangle -X INAT
$IPT -t mangle -N INAT

# Match local traffic
$IPT -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -s 10.0.0.0/8 -d 10.0.0.0/8 -j CLASSIFY 
--set-class 1:1
$IPT -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -s 10.0.0.0/8 -d 10.0.0.0/8 -j ACCEPT
# Classify local / international traffic
$IPT -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -s 10.0.0.0/8 -m geoip --dst-cc ZA -j NATI
$IPT -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -s 196.23.147.49/32 -m geoip --dst-cc ZA 
-j NATI
$IPT -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -d 10.0.0.0/8 -m geoip --src-cc ZA -j NATI
$IPT -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -d 196.23.147.49/32 -m geoip --src-cc ZA

$IPT -t mangle -A NATI -j ACCEPT

# Build output rules

$TC qdisc add dev $IFIN parent 20:100 handle 100: pfifo limit 10
$TC qdisc add dev $IFIN parent 20:200 handle 200: pfifo limit 10

---------------------------------

The script as-is oopses my box every time. If I changed the initial 
classification for local traffic from 1:1 to 10: (an initial 
misunderstanding ;-) ), then it does not oops.

If, instead of a prio qdisc, I use a single HTB class for distributing 
local and external traffic, then it also works, but after a while, one 
of the classes will simply stop sending traffic...

Does anybody have any idea what is going on here?

Thanks,
