[Xen-devel] [PATCH 0/4] [Net] Support accelerated network plugin modules

[Kieran Mansley <kmansley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is a another iteration of some earlier patches sent to the xen-
devel mailing list.  This set of patches provides the hooks and support
necessary for accelerated network plugin modules to attach to Xen's
netback and netfront.  These modules provide a fast path for network
traffic where there is hardware support available for the netfront
driver to send and receive packets directly to a NIC (such as those
available from Solarflare).

As there were no comments or objections to the last iteration a couple
of weeks ago, I'm hoping these can be applied to xen-unstable soon.

The changes since last time are relatively minor, consisting of some
modifications to the interface between netfront and the frontend
acceleration module to improve support for saving and restoring guest
domains.
