Comware 5: dscp ignored despite 'qos trust dscp'

    I am marking DSCP using an input QoS policy.

    The details of the policy setup are irrelevant, a packet capture from a machine connected to the output port confirms that:

    - packet DSCP is 0 by default (without the policy)

    - DSCP changes to the desired value (cs6 in this case) when I apply the input policy.

    However, when I run

    display qos queue-statistics interface

    on the output port (I should see prioritization of marked packets here) all queues counters are 0 except for queue 2.

    My output port configuration is as follows: 

    #
    interface GigabitEthernet1/0/10
     port link-mode bridge
     port link-type trunk
     undo port trunk permit vlan 1
     port trunk permit vlan [list of VLANs]
     flow-control
     qos lr outbound cir 514560 cbs 16000000
     qos trust dscp
    #

    I have also tried:

    - without qos lr on the output port

    - with wrr queueing discipline on the output port

    - with remark local-precedence in the QoS policy

    - with remark ip-precedence

    - using remark dscp on an output rule instead of input

    In all cases every queue statistic except queue2 stays 0.

    I've been through the "H3C S5830 Switch Series ACL and QoS Configuration Guide" document and I don't see any other info on the topic.

    Any clue or insight is much appreciated :)

    Turns out that:

    Remarking dot1p works; remarking dscp requires qos trust dscp on the input port (remarking is done before mapping, turns out). For a global configuration this is too much config crud, so I stuck with dot1p.

    The display qos queue-statistics interface [interface] command is misleading: multicast packets ARE classified but not listed in the queue??
