Mark, I've tested http://repo.or.cz/w/qemu/markmc.git and it indeed works for my test case (NFS through emulated smc91c111 NIC on arm-integragorcp) How about adding a comment in tap_send() about when qemu_send_packet_async() would return 0 and -1? I'd also recommend checking for the case of qemu_send_packet_async() returning -1 and dropping a packet and have a debug message guarded by #ifdef DEBUG_TAP in case the qemu_can_send_packet() check is ever removed in future modifications of the code. Also, would it be possible to get the stable-0.11 version of the patch into the soon to be released Fedora 12? I've written some embedded Linux tutorials for Taiwanese consumer electronics developers that recommends using qemu on Fedora. Being able to rely on NFS always working in Fedora's qmeu packet would really help :)
