Hi,
I have a doubt about the problem that fq_codel has with 802.11n packet 
aggregation, and your help to understand the problem would be well accepted.

Could you explain me how and in which real terms (for example, through an 
example) ath9k underlaying queue will limit fq_codel effect?
I imagine that ath9k will only add some delay that can't be controlled by 
fq_codel, but I can't imagine how delay could grow in case of fillfullment of 
ath9k's queue...

Also, I read that fq_codel drops packets at head of queue. So, if fq_codel 
can't manage and act over ath9k queue, will fq_codel's effect change and not to 
work as expected? I'm thinking, for example, at the most common TCP congestion 
control techniques: will TCP be able to correctly understand what fq_codel 
wanted to announce, if it isn't droping packets at the very first level of 
queuing?

Thanks

Alessandro Bolletta
