teql load balancing on tap devices

Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

Hello list,

I'd like to use teql with tap devices (two OpenVPN tunnels). This works,
but the doc /usr/src/linux-<version>/net/sched/sch_teql.c says:

"1. Slave devices MUST be active devices, i.e., they must raise the
tbusy signal and generate EOI events. If you want to equalize virtual
devices like tunnels, use a normal eql device."

I can't find if tap devices raise the tbusy signal or generate EOI
events, so I assume they don't. Should I go for eql devices like the doc
says? 

Richard.
