[PATCH v3 0/6] uio_hv_generice improvements

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



These patches extend uio_hv_generic driver to make it usable
for DPDK networking. The original version did not enough
functionality to support userspace network drivers. Needed support
of send/receive buffers and sub channels.

Patches against current char-misc-next

v3
  - rebase on current char-misc-next (already got vmbus patches)
  - don't use module parameters (not necessary now)

Stephen Hemminger (6):
  doc: fix documentation about uio_hv_generic
  uio: document uio_hv_generic regions
  uio_hv_generic: create send and receive buffers
  uio_hv_generic: check that host supports monitor page
  uio_hv_generic: add rescind support
  uio_hv_generic: support sub-channels
