[Cerowrt-devel] beating the drum for BQL

I had a chance to give a talk at broadcom recently, slides here:

http://flent-fremont.bufferbloat.net/~d/broadcom_aug9.pdf

(there's a fun slide on "carmageddon", and I am finding the
"tcp_square_wave" test *works* on EE types)

I was very happy to see BQL support in all of broadcom's *ethernet*
drivers, but along the way I noticed how many other drivers still
lacked it in the current kernel . Notably I figured a few dsl devices
should have it by now, and no doubt a few other device types.

I/we really should have beat the bql drum harder over the last 6
years. It's the basic start to all the debloating.
