Hi,
As reported earlier, sometimes my home box don't want
to send anything.

System.map:
c03e8662 t noop_dequeue
I guess this explains why I do not see calls to pfifo_fast_dequeue! :)
But how come my interface is using noop queue, is a mystery to me.
# ip l
[I have 4 wireless PCI cards for testing - lots of netdevs:]

After modprobe -r hostap_pci:
# ip l
1: if: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000
link/ether 00:0a:e6:7c:dd:79 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
17: tun0: <POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST,NOARP,UP> mtu 1464 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 100
link/[65534]
As you can see, ip l reports that iface 'if' uses pfifo_fast, not noop...
Any ideas?
