> What do you generally think of the patch/implementation ? :) We have two driver implementation paths on recieve and now we'll have two on send, and that's not a good trend. In an ideal world all the drivers would be NAPI and netif_rx() would only be used by tunneling drivers and similar in the protocol layers. And likewise all sends would go through ->hard_start_xmit(). If you can come up with a long term strategy that gets rid of the special transmit method, that'd be great. We should make Linux network drivers easy to write, not more difficult by constantly adding most interfaces than we consolidate. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
