Subject: Re: [PATCH net-next-2.6]  macvtap: Return error when macvlan drops the packet
Date: Tue, 13 Jul 2010 09:42:24 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1279039344.7719.19.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

Hello Arnd,

I am working on macvtap zero-copy patch. I found that the packet was
silently dropped and packet out of order when using zero-copy. That was
a reason I submitted this patch to switch to copy mode when that
happens. I think I might need more time to debug why first.

Thanks
Shirley
