I agree. Let's not rip it out yet. There ar ealso DPDK alternatives, so
this world is becoming more diverse, not less.
that is good question. My thoughts are start seperating kernel ops along the
following lines.
Perhaps we should see kernel_ops really as a stack_ops. So specific OS
socket handling should have an ops pointer. But when we have DPDK on two
OSes, perhaps we will need dpdk-linux and dpdk-bsd to differentiate.
I think it is a perfect time to wait and see what happens before redoing
all this now :)
I think the bigges issue is that linuxisms have been creeping into
places outside kernel_*, like the netlink calls that have been added.
Those we will have to fix at some point in the future.
