Subject: Re: [PATCH net-next-2.6]  macvtap: Return error when macvlan drops
 the packet

Hello Arnd,

I am working on macvtap zero-copy patch. I found that the packet was
silently dropped and packet out of order when using zero-copy. That was
a reason I submitted this patch to switch to copy mode when that
happens. I think I might need more time to debug why first.

Thanks
Shirley
