Subject: [PATCH 0/3] macvlan: support for guest vm direct rx/tx
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2009 14:55:06 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091113195201.11184.25766.stgit@mimic.site> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4AFAD86A.9070506@trash.net>
(Applies to net-2.6.git/master:1dfc5827)
These patches allow other modules to override the receive
path of a macvlan. This is being done to support guest
VMs operating directly over a macvlan. Routines to allow
creation and deletion of macvlans from in-kernel modules
were also exposed/added.

Patrick Mullaney (3):
macvlan: allow in-kernel modules to create and manage macvlan devices
macvlan: derived from Arnd Bergmann's patch for macvtap
netdevice: provide common routine for macvlan and vlan operstate management
