I am pleased to announce the availability of the first revision of the "Crossbow APIs for Device Drivers" document, available at the following location:

http://opensolaris.org/os/project/crossbow/Docs/crossbow-drivers.pdf

The document focuses on the new driver APIs that were introduced as part of the Crossbow project, specifically support for multiple receive and transmit rings, virtualization, dynamic polling, and multiple factory MAC addresses. The document includes a detailed description of the current version of the APIs, and should be useful for device driver writers who want to port their drivers to the Crossbow APIs for integration in OpenSolaris.

Note that as it is the case for GLDv3, these APIs are not yet committed and should be used only by drivers that are part of the ON consolidation.

Other Crossbow documents, use cases, man pages, papers, etc, are available from http://opensolaris.org/os/project/crossbow/Docs

Nicolas.
