Another possibility would to replace requeue by a peek+force_dequeue
interface, where you can peek at the next packet, and you could then
dequeue that particular packet if you're satisfied.

That would be fine for TBF since it only needs to check whether
the current packet exceeds the limit and reschedule otherwise.
HFSC OTOH really needs to know the length of the next packet for
calculating the deadline.

You mean a peek interface is insufficient for HFSC? Could you
elaborate?

Thanks,
