[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [Xen-devel] [SPAM] [PATCH] netback for upstream
I have rebased the current xen/next-2.6.32 netback stuff onto 2.6.37-rc5
in a new branch at:
git://xenbits.xen.org/people/ianc/linux-2.6.git upstream/dom0/backend/netback
This builds on my upstream/dom0/backend/core branch. (full pull request
style details are at the end)
I've added some proper commit messages to the early commits which were
previously lacking them. In particular 8495d90cf5c3..5f7b85f2899e seem
to have been Authored by Jeremy (according to the git metadata) but were
not signed-off. Jeremy is it OK to add your sign-off to those three?
Until those early commit messages are done the branch will be subject to
rebasing.
As it stands the branch won't work because it still needs PageForeign.
My intention is to replace this dependency with the new m2p overlay
grant table map stuff added for gntdev.
In the meantime if you need something right now I do have a working (if
somewhat over-engineered) version which removed the dependency of
PageForeign by always copying. This is in the
upstream/dom0/backend/netback-copying branch in the same repository. I
intend to throw this away when I've got the new m2p overlay stuff ready.
If you wanted the old PageForeign style thing you could look in
notupstream/foreign-memory while flagellating yourself.
So my plan going forward is to:
* switch to gnttab_{map,unmap}_refs + m2p overlay stuff.
* do a checkpatch.pl sweep over the complete files.
* do a "git mv" (or perhaps a suitable "git filter-branch") to
move from drivers/xen/netback to drivers/net/xen-netback.
* ensure netif.h has a reasonably current description of the ring
protocol, I suspect it is missing stuff like the GSO prefix
support.
After that I intend to submit to linux-netdev as a single large patch
for review. When it comes time to merge I'll ask if they are willing to
take the branch with history.
Ian.
