Hmmm... I thought that flipping would be a high performance path?
So if we use rx-copy, does this mean that data is received from a
physical interface (or another domain) via DMA, and then actually copied
into the buffers for DomU? Do we consider the performance implications
of this too low to be worrying about?
Thanks
