I am sending out the the proper detail now for your review. Please review by noon pacific time 4/25/08. If there are no objections, I will leave the case in the closed approved fast-track state. Overview ----------- The pluggable vnet resources interface allows for the dynamic re-plumbing of the I/O portion of the vnet driver while not requiring the re-plumbing of the IP stack above the vnet deivce. Hence, the switching between virtual I/O operation and Hybrid I/O operation of the vnet is handled cleanly and smoothly with the upper layers not being aware of the switch in operations. The Hybrid I/O pluggability of this interfaces offers guest domains direct access to a portion of a network device plumbed directly under the vnet. Operation of the interface is rather simple. The client (vnet) registers with the providers each of the resources (LDC channels or the Hybrid I/O NIU client domain driver). Each provider is a GLDv3 device that provides a GLDv3 compliant device interface.
