Hi All, I am working on porting an existing network driver from Linux to Xen, I understand network drivers needs netback and netfront functionality in order to work in Xen but I am unable to nail down the details of changes required esp. a. will the existing driver go into hypervisor or dom0? b. what changes are required in TX/RX rings for DMA in existing driver and how to incorporate them into netback/netfront, c. handling IRQs... Any pointers to existing nic driver or pointer to a document would be really helpful. Thanks -RK _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel |
