I agree. The network issues are next on my merge list, so I hope to look at this today.

I'd recommend a simpler "for now" patch that doesn't alter the underlying structure so drastically. On 22 April 2015 11:47:19 CEST, Richard Mortier < richard.mortier@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:

- State of the codebase (refresh/testing/releases/etc)
The version of Jitsu we used for evaluation has been released and is in mirage-dev, but we have not yet used it to host unikernels on a public server so we will probably discover some new issues when we do that. Anil and Dave are preparing a Xen server where we will test this.
Currently Synjitsu requires an older patched TCP/IP stack and the ARP tables are a bit difficult to set up. It would be nice if we could merge the patch into the main stack before NSDI and add a way to configure the ARP tables dynamically, as it would be
much easier to install.
Is this something that Mindy's ARP patches would be useful for? Or is there a simpler path "for now" so that something is ready by NSDI?
