Hello,

I was wondering if there has been any work/thoughts on trying to plumb NetBsd 
TCP/IP rump stack into Linux containers ? What I mean by that is to make a 
Linux sockets based application running inside LXC using the rump tcp/ip stack 
as it's main stack, somehow bypassing the host Linux kernel's tcp/ip stack and 
sending packets straight to the physical interface of the host. This could be 
extremely helpful in a high performance setup as usually a shared linux tcp/ip 
stack is a bottleneck (CONFIG_NET_NS is only a partial remedy IMHO). 

Assuming this can be done, what I cannot fathom is the way the LXC container 
would bypass Linux TCP/IP. Any ideas or guidance is welcome.

Looking for pointers and suggestions.

Thanks,
Chaitanya Lala
