src/sys/arch/xen/xen: if_xennet_xenbus.c
Log Message:
Implement feature-rx-copy support in xennet (domU network frontend).
Instead of flipping pages back and forth between dom0 and domU for the
network RX queue, feature-rx-copy tells frontend to use content copy
instead.
This is the only mode supported by the dom0 Linux pv_ops backend. NetBSD
domU and dom0 can still fall back to flipping, when needed.
Copy is supposed to be faster than flipping, as it does not require
MMU manipulation and TLB shootdowns.
Based on patch provided by Hideki ONO. Thanks!
