Subject: [PATCH 0/7] Add support to FCoE offload through net_device
Date: Thu, 19 Feb 2009 12:49:32 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090219194734.22270.8445.stgit.yi.zou@intel.com> (raw)

Hi,
I am working on to support offload for Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) for
the Open-FCoE project maintained at http://www.open-fcoe.org.

I would like to propose adding FCoE offload support through the net_device
struct as shown in the series of patches followed here. The general idea is to
add "struct net_fcoe_ops *fcoe_ops" to net_device, so any network adapter driver
that wants to provides FCoE offload can use fcoe_ops through net_device.

The following patches touch both netdev and libfc/fcoe, where the first two
patches touch netdev, and the rest patches show how the proposed net_fcoe_ops
struct is used in fcoe/libfc through net_deivce to support FCoE offload.

Thanks.
