Subject: [PATCH net-next] net_sched: sch_fq: tweak unlikely() hints in fq_dequeue()
Date: Tue,  3 Feb 2026 21:47:16 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260203214716.880853-1-edumazet@google.com> (raw)

After 076433bd78d7 ("net_sched: sch_fq: add fast path
for mostly idle qdisc") we need to remove one unlikely()
because q->internal holds all the fast path packets.

       skb = fq_peek(&q->internal);
       if (unlikely(skb)) {
                q->internal.qlen--;

Calling INET_ECN_set_ce() is very unlikely.

These changes allow fq_dequeue_skb() to be (auto)inlined,
thus making fq_dequeue() faster.
