Hello, We have general purpose CPU (PPC) and an ASIC on our board. ASIC can perform all lookups according to the packet address/port source/destination,protocol type, MAC address source/destination. Depending on the outcome of the lookup ASIC can - drop the packet - forward the packet to one of the interfaces - forward the packet to the CPU and so on. We are running 2.6 Linux kernel in the CPU. Naturally I would like to use netfilter for management of the hardware (ASIC) tables and use the hardware to forward as many packets as possible without CPU intervention. I read through the documentation and started to study the source code. It appears, that it's possible to solve the problem. But I would like to avoid solving the same time problem twice. Is there any example(s) for this type of integration ? any documentation/tips/links could save me lot of time.
