Added to CC: ] Van fell off the face of the planet after giving his presentation and never published his code, only his slides. I've started to make a slow attempt at implementing his ideas, nothing but pure infrastructure so far, but you can look at what I have here: kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/vj-2.6.git don't expect major progress and don't expect anything beyond a simple channel to softint packet processing on receive any time soon. Going all the way to the socket is a large endeavor and will require a lot of restructuring to do it right, so expect this to take on the order of months.
