Hmm, you missed at least two implementations of network aio in the previous year, and now with syslets we can have third one. But it looks from this discussion, that it will not prevent from changing in-kernel driver - place a hook into skb allocation path and allocate data from opposing memory - get pages from another side and put them into fragments, then copy headers into skb->data. -- Evgeniy Polyakov - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
