Wouldn't it make sense to use the libbsd for this network interface driver?
my feeling is that from long run perspective is libBSD.
It would be nice to also see in libbsd.
But I think that virtio netwok included in basic RTEMS stack is very
important which is based on assumption that there are more people
who use and are familiar with RTEMS integrated stack than who
started to use libBSD.
So I personally like idea to include this option to the standard sources.
I would like a little more if x86 specific part of virtio ends
in c/src/lib/libbsp/i386/pc386/virtio, but common part which can
be reused for other architectures and network driver specific part
is placed in rtems/c/src/lib/libbsp/shared and rtems/c/src/libchip/network.
+1
It would worth to add x86 virtio to libBSD and even to lwIP
to have option to test all these stacks under quite spread KVM
based virtualization/test environment.
But generally, I would like if the code can be accepted to mainline.
The bar is lower moving FreeBSD in for legacy network stack than libbsd.
It would be nice to have.
