Hi,

I am noob to openvswitch,  but I guess as a `switch', it somehow has some qdisc on its queue (that is connected to the out port).

Linux provides different qdisc for traffic shaping, like htb, red.

My question is, does openvswitch take use of the linux qdisc? I mean the code reside under https://github.com/torvalds/linux/tree/master/net/sched

Also, in the openvswitch code base, what's the related c file for implementing qdisc?

Thanks.


Regards.
