+ MALLOC(9)'s replaced on contigmalloc(9), in order to get PAGE_SIZE alignment
(for memory mapping).
+ ringmap refactoring: read(2) is removed and replaced on mmap(2). Earlier
user space process had to cal read(2) in order to get physical addres of
ring-structure. The the mapping the ring-structure in user-space was
accomplished though mmap(/dev/mem). Now ring-structure will mapped through
mmap(/dev/ringmap ... ) in user space.
+ ringmap code placed in CURRENT and integrated with em driver.
-+ integrating ringmap with libpcap is in progress
- porting the ringmap to 10Gig has not started because of absence of
10GbE-adapter
Next tasks:
1. integrate ringmap with libpcap
2. test ringmap with 1GbE on CURRENT
3. as soon as I have 10GbE adapter, I will immediately begin port the ringmap
to 10Gig
