Re: upgrading kernel breaks tc ?

Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

I test it on centos 7 fresh image, but still the same behaviour.

So its either a feature set or a bug? But reason behind it to be a
feature is not clear. Can anyone throw light at it?


Besides, how (in my actual case of kernel upgrade) come simple kernel
upgrade i.e. installation of kernel.rpm causes this behaviour to be
infused in tc? Does upgrading kernel automatically upgrades tc (or
iproute)? I dont think so...
But then how it all happened?

Please help ...

Its getting pretty tricky out here ...
