Thanks for reply.
So I've done few tests. I've removed quantum 64 (it was qdisc with small packets). It made no difference. It looks like the key is the first sfq qdisc (tc qdisc add dev $DEV parent 1:2 handle 2: sfq - in my example). When there is no traffic in this qdisc for about 45 seconds (shorter time when there is no traffic at all on the interface) - it stalls. Other qdiscs stall also. So there is no packet flow on that interface. Removing filters ('flow' filters) does'nt help. I have to remove (all) sfq qdiscs. And then the traffic is resumed.
Regards.
