EOS - End of Send. Its time betwen two dequeues and packet transmits
used by qdisc for calculation.
Is that a kernel transmit or a real "on the wire" transmit - ie can you keep the devices' buffer empty or just detect when it's full?
Any of current IMQ implementations do not
It leave always only one packet in the device queue. It is there until is not dequeued (sent to the device driver) and then is inserted another etc, etc
I think I understand - in the case of imq -> ppp -> usb/pci -> radsl modem with big buffer -> phone line. imq will only let one packet wait in ppp queue, but there could still be a full buffer in the "real" device.
