Hi Nithin,

He was working on the commands mapping and the arguments parsing, so no 
duplicate effort at the moment just to clear it out.

He will look over the patches you sent out when he comes back from PTO and see 
how he can best fit his effort.

Thanks,
Alin.

Alin,
Just one question here. From my understanding, VMware folks are working on the 
kernel patch to add netlink support, and Alin (and possibly Sam) are working on 
the userspace changes.[1]

In the next few weeks, we'll start implementing the commands, and that work can 
be spread out. Do let me know if this understanding is not correct.

thanks,
Nithin

- Synced up on where things are. VMware folks to send out kernel patch, and try 
to integrate with the patch that Alin sent out for porting dpif-linux.c.
