[Yuzhou (C)]

Hi  everyone,

    I am a newbie to netmap. After reading papers about netmap,

I think the path that netmap talk to host stack, like this: 

          Application
             |
             |
          Socket API
             |
             |
          Host stack
             |
             |
        Netmap rx/tx ring
             |
             |
          Nic driver	

     My understanding is right or not??  Anybody knows, please tell me, Thanks!
