Hello! Trying to load a custom module (same for teql but I didn't tried it) whan the qdisc module is not loaded, makes tc hang. This is because qdisc_create aquires rtnl_sem and then tries to load a module that tries to register_netdev (that tries to aquire the same rtnl_sem). Applying this patch makes the problem go away. The patch was tested under 2.6.11.6. Signed-off-by: Catalin(ux aka Dino) BOIE <catab at umbrella.ro> Please apply. The patch is a rewrite of Dave's one with small additions (module_put in and dev_put out). Thanks for help goes to Dave, Thomas and Patrick. --- Catalin(ux aka Dino) BOIE catab at deuroconsult.ro http://kernel.umbrella.ro/
