X-Git-Tag: omap-for-v3.13/fixes-for-merge-window-take2~65^2~49 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8d49751580db804a02caf6a5b7cebe2ff26c0d7e;p=pandora-kernel.git Sample Implementation of Intel MIC User Space Daemon. This patch introduces a sample user space daemon which implements the virtio device backends on the host. The daemon creates/removes/configures virtio device backends by communicating with the Intel MIC Host Driver. The virtio devices currently supported are virtio net, virtio console and virtio block. Virtio net supports TSO/GSO. The daemon also monitors card shutdown status and takes appropriate actions like killing the virtio backends and resetting the card upon card shutdown and crashes.
