  • Thread-topic: Adding NIC driver support

Hi,

 

I’d like to know the level of effort required to add support for a new NIC. The driver I have is not yet ‘public’ but you might already have played with it, it’s a new version of the 8259x driver for Intel 10GB PCIe adapters.

Does XEN codebase support some level of ‘compatibility’ layer allowing unmodified driver to build against it?

 

The goal is to come up with some benchmarking results using XEN 3.4.

Thank you.

 

François Isabelle
