Subject: [PATCHv2-RFC 0/6] tun zerocopy support
So this still triggers some failures under stress
but I thought it might be helpful to post here
since people expressed interest.
This uses some patches from Ian's patchset
to support zerocopy with tun.
We are still trying to figure out how to make
everything work properly with tcp but tun seems
easier, and it's helpful since not everyone can
use macvtap.
There's some code duplication between tun and macvtap
now: common code could move to net/core/datagram.c,
this patch does not do this yet.
