Hi All, in htb 3.3 I turned on more debugs for bad timestamps. As result we found another bug in all 2.4 (and probably 2.2) kernels. Because the bug is from today I attached patch. It is no harm to apply it in every case. It will get rid of these: May 14 09:31:00 kernel: HTB: bad diff in charge, diff=1310000 now=6873088 then=4281851904 j=525127 May 14 09:31:00 kernel: HTB: bad diff in charge, diff=1310000 now=6873088 then=4281851904 j=525127 (hopefuly). I''ll probably make it part of future HTB patches. devik

Just curious, what effect could this bug have (e.g. htb not measuring right, performance, etc.)? Could this bug have an impact on systems running HTB2 & SFQ? Thank you! Greetings, Nils
Its effect is periodic rate error each 40 minutes. In 2.4.19preX it cause total instability of CBQ, HTB and TBF. devik On Thu, 16 May 2002, Nils Lichtenfeld wrote:> Hi Devik! > > Martin Devera wrote: > > in htb 3.3 I turned on more debugs for bad timestamps.
