Do I need to say more? This is where we can re-route the packets, for example, redirecting it to yet another netns. This is in fact what we use in production, not anything that only in my imagination. You really have to think about why you allow a different netns influence another netns by holding the skb to throttle the source TCP socket. > > > > > And for veth pair: > > > > xmit from one side is RX for the other side > > > > So, where is the queueing?

Whole point is to avoid queueing traffic. What queues? You really need to define it, seriously. > Would you be okay if I include this chunk?
