This patch implement TUN_MSG_PTR msg_control type. This type allows the caller to pass an array of XDP buffs to tuntap through ptr field of the tun_msg_control. Tap will build skb through those XDP buffers. This will avoid lots of indirect calls thus improves the icache utilization and allows to do XDP batched flushing when doing XDP redirection.

Hi, The attached patches enables the bridge to filter and forward packets according to their IEEE 802.1q headers. The goals behind this change include : - Enable running STP on 802.1q tagged networks. STP packets must be untagged. It isn't obvious how else to enable STP with the current bridge and vlan code. - Add native support for an untagged vlan. Currently an untagged vlan can

Currently we would still potentially suffer multicast packet loss if there is just either an IGMP or an MLD querier: For the former case, we would possibly drop IPv6 multicast packets, for the latter IPv4 ones. This is because we are currently assuming that if either an IGMP or MLD querier is present that the other one is present, too. This patch makes the behaviour and fix added in "bridge:

Hi, This series of patches contains the second part of an initial implementation of the IEEE 802.1Qbg standard: code for the exchange of VDP VSI TLVs between a host with virtual machines and an adjacent switch. VDP profiles consisting of mode,mgrid,typeid,typeidversion,instanceid,mac,vlan can be given to lldpad with lldptool. A way to deliver profiles to lldpad from libvirt using netlink

Hi, This patches introduce virtio_net_hdr_{from,to}_skb functions for conversion of GSO information between skb and virtio_net_hdr. Mike Rapoport (6): virtio_net: add _UAPI prefix to virtio_net header guards virtio_net: introduce virtio_net_hdr_{from,to}_skb macvtap: use common code for virtio_net_hdr and skb GSO conversion tuntap: use common code for virtio_net_hdr and skb GSO

Hi, this set of patches contains the initial implementation of the IEEE 802.1Qbg standard: code for the exchange of EVB TLVs in LLDP frames to negotiate VSI capabalities as well as VDP VSI TLVs between a host with virtual machines and an adjacent switch.

Hi all: This series tries to batch submitting packets to underlayer socket through msg_control during sendmsg(). This is done by: 1) Doing userspace copy inside vhost_net 2) Build XDP buff 3) Batch at most 64 (VHOST_NET_BATCH) XDP buffs and submit them once through msg_control during sendmsg(). 4) Underlayer sockets can use XDP buffs directly when XDP is enalbed, or build skb based on XDP
