This series adds the ability for the guest to set the virtio-net device
MAC address, a new control virtqueue for setting configuration data from
the guest, and new interfaces making use of the control virtqueue for
setting RX mode options, MAC filter table entries, and VLAN filter bits.
The end result is that the virtio-net device has more of the features of
a real hardware NIC and can be configured to drop packets the guest
isn't interested in seeing.
This version is based on revision 6501 of the qemu tree and matches v4
of the Linux guest virtio_net changes posted to the kvm and netdev
mailing lists. The guest patch to support setting the MAC address
(via config write) is currently in Rusty's patch queue. Note
that this series adds some infrastructure around the virtio-net save/load
functions and increments through a couple save revisions. It would
probably be worthwile to synchronize virtio-net before applying this
since a qemu rev 2 save image does not currently match a kvm rev 2 save
image. Thanks,
Alex
