Hi all,
I have a bonded interface bond0 which enslaves eth4 and eth5. When trying
to open the devices eth4 or eth5 via netmap, I get a "device in use" error.
Opening the bond0 interface directly in netmap works, however it is in
emulated mode (as expected of a pseudointerface)
What is the idiomat
Is it still possible to share ring buffers across multiple physical network
cards for zero-copy mode, or does the application need to take this into
account and perform a one-copy?

Hi all,
Is it possible to have a netmap pipe share memory with a netmap port opened
in KB mode for zero-copy purposes?
All the best

Hi all,
I had a quick question about some of the implications of sharing packet
buffer memory between multiple interfaces. Assuming an arbitrary amount of
interfaces (> 2) are linked together with NM_OPEN_NO_MMAP and share the
same memory, would this have any issues with lock contention?
Sorry in
