remote servers I mean http web servers TOS.
I already know about peers in fact current squid(as of 04/24/11) TOS are not
being marked peer(digest or icp) hit when local miss.
http://bugs.squid-cache.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3202
AFAIK squid 2 series TOS always marked zero from remote servers.
according to source code initial tos=0;
there are some patches called preserve tos miss but kernel(linux) needs to
be patched.
does kernel really need to patch in order to pass the TOS value from kernel
to squid?

Subject: Re: TOS from remote to squid(2 series)
It depends on how squid is getting traffic from remote servers....if
you are fetching requests from remote cache peer then it is possible
to set the TOS headers depending on the parent/sibling reply.
If you have a parent/sibling proxy configured in your local squid ,
then you can set the parent_hit/sibling_hit to whatever TOS/DSCP mark
you want...

squid can set TOS but why squid cant get TOS value from remote server or
pass them on miss.
patching kernel for geting the TOS value and pass to squid is the only
solution? or it was chosen for highest performance...
