+/******************************************************************************
+ * netback/loopback.c
+ * 
+ * A two-interface loopback device to emulate a local netfront-netback
+ * connection. This ensures that local packet delivery looks identical
+ * to inter-domain delivery. Most importantly, packets delivered locally
+ * originating from other domains will get *copied* when they traverse this
+ * driver. This prevents unbounded delays in socket-buffer queues from
+ * causing the netback driver to "seize up".
+ * 
+ * This driver creates a symmetric pair of loopback interfaces with names
+ * vif0.0 and veth0. The intention is that 'vif0.0' is bound to an Ethernet
+ * bridge, just like a proper netback interface, while a local IP interface
+ * is configured on 'veth0'.
+ * 
+ * As with a real netback interface, vif0.0 is configured with a suitable
+ * dummy MAC address. No default is provided for veth0: a reasonable strategy
+ * is to transfer eth0's MAC address to veth0, and give eth0 a dummy address
+ * (to avoid confusing the Etherbridge).
+ * 
+ * Copyright (c) 2005 K A Fraser
