CVS commit: src/sys/rump/net/lib/libvirtif



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   pooka
Date:           Mon Mar  3 13:56:41 UTC 2014

Modified Files:
        src/sys/rump/net/lib/libvirtif: if_virt.c if_virt.h rumpcomp_user.c
            rumpcomp_user.h

Log Message:
Pull in the changes from the dpdk, netmap and snabb switch repos.
There are two major changes:

1) All thread context policy is pushed down to the hypercalls.
   This is meant to help performance-mongering implementations be
   able to control packet scheduling better (e.g. pin down packet
   reception to certain physical cores).
2) Generalize linkstr, meaning that the interface can now take an
   arbitrary string which is passed to the create() hypercall.  This can
   be used to map backend device characteristics to the rump kernel
   interface instance.
