[Xen-users] Re: netbsd/amd64 5.1rc4 domU network

I wrote a xenfront-copy patch for NetBSD DomU.

http://blog.yellowback.net/uploads/netbsd-5.99.27-xenfront-rx-copy.patch

Networking works in my environment:
 Xen: xen-4.0.2-rc1-pre (64bit)
 Dom0: Linux 2.6.32.21(pvops) (64bit) + Ubuntu 9.04
 DomU: NetBSD 5.99.39 (64bit)

I'm pleased to confirm that this works with XenServer 5.6. I've not yet got my backport to netbsd-5 to work (I just applied the -current patch and fixed up one section that didn't apply - I've not looked at the patch in detail yet); it booted without messing up the dom0, but then panicked.

My ftp speeds (i.e. testing both network and storage speeds) have gone up from around 50kB/s to 51MB/s. :-)

Jean-Yves, can you cast your eye over the patch and commit it to -current?
Are you aware of any changes in that area which might affect a backport to netbsd-5?
