...is going to be a standard addition to the IEEE 802.1Q specification. The working group agreed at the last meeting to pursue a project to augment the bridge standard with hairpin mode (aka reflective relay) and a remote filtering service (VEPA).

I'm trying to understand what the extlinux bootloader code written into a partition needs to successfully start. I have a disk with four partitions, the second is marked active and contains a kernel, initrd and root FS and extlinux has been run on it. If I use mbr.bin as the initial bootloader the system boots fine. I need this to work within an environment supplied by a third party. They

I did not get this ready for the merge window, but people asked what the status of this is so I'm posting it now to solicit feedback. The first patch just adds some hooks into macvlan.c and is less invasive than the previous version. That part should be fine and I'd like this to get merged into macvlan for 2.6.33 if people agree that the approach is right. The second patch adds the
