[PATCH net-next v11 3/5] net: Introduce net_failover driver
The net_failover driver provides an automated failover mechanism via APIs to create and destroy a failover master netdev and mananges a primary and standby slave netdevs that get registered via the generic failover infrastructure. The failover netdev acts a master device and controls 2 slave devices. The original paravirtual interface gets registered as 'standby' slave netdev and a

[PATCH net-next v10 2/4] net: Introduce generic failover module
This provides a generic interface for paravirtual drivers to listen for netdev register/unregister/link change events from pci ethernet devices with the same MAC and takeover their datapath. The notifier and event handling code is based on the existing netvsc implementation. It exposes 2 sets of interfaces to the paravirtual drivers. 1. For paravirtual drivers like virtio_net that use 3 netdev

[PATCH net-next v10 0/4] Enable virtio_net to act as a standby for a passthru device
The main motivation for this patch is to enable cloud service providers to provide an accelerated datapath to virtio-net enabled VMs in a transparent manner with no/minimal guest userspace changes. This also enables hypervisor controlled live migration to be supported with VMs that have direct attached SR-IOV VF devices. Patch 1 introduces a new feature bit VIRTIO_NET_F_STANDBY that can be used

(mst) - added support for handling
