Hello,
I am working on an OS which is freebsd based, we do not use the regular mbuf
for
packet processing but some customized packet buffers. They work fine with are
regular physical NIC drivers.
Now we want to port our OS on XEN using PV NIC. For this we need to use
netfront
driver. But after seeing the regular netfront driver implementation for BSD it
looks like we need to use mbuf.
Could some one please help us in using the netfront driver without using mbuf.
Instead of it we want to use are customized packet buffer.
Thanks in advance.
