...can make it call an arbitrary pointer though). It would be better for us to create the skb, and have a special interface to inject it directly. This way we can handle the UIO_MAXIOV limit ourselves (eg. by not doing zero copy on such stupid cases). 6) By calling tun_get_socket() and macvtap_get_socket() we are forcing those modules to load. We should use symbol_get() to avoid this. In short, this code is a mess. Assuming we can't just break the API, we've got a long process ahead of us to get it into shape :( Thanks, Rusty.
