38 /*M:011 Network code master Jeff Garzik points out numerous shortcomings in
39 * this driver if it aspires to greatness.
41 * Firstly, it doesn't use "NAPI": the networking's New API, and is poorer for
42 * it. As he says "NAPI means system-wide load leveling, across multiple
43 * network interfaces. Lack of NAPI can mean competition at higher loads."
45 * He also points out that we don't implement set_mac_address, so users cannot
46 * change the devices hardware address. When I asked why one would want to:
47 * "Bonding, and situations where you /do/ want the MAC address to "leak" out
48 * of the host onto the wider net."
50 * Finally, he would like module unloading: "It is not unrealistic to think of
51 * [un|re|]loading the net support module in an lguest guest. And, adding
52 * module support makes the programmer more responsible, because they now have
53 * to learn to clean up after themselves. Any driver that cannot clean up
54 * after itself is an incomplete driver in my book."
