This set of patches adds the support for acceleration plugins to the
netfront/netback drivers. These plugins are intended to support
virtualisable network hardware that can be directly accessed from the
guest, bypassing dom0.
This is in response to the RFC we posted to xen-devel with an outline
of our approach at the end of September.
To follow will be another set of patches to provide our hardware
specific drivers and plugins. The above set are all hardware-agnostic
and so of wider relevance.
Signed-off-by: kmansley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The following describes each of the patches that are attached.
xenbus_for_each
- Two new functions to allow the frontend and backend buses to be
enumerated, and a function applied to each device on those buses.
Add xenbus_for_each_[back,front]end functions to iterate each bus
