It would be nice to reuse the data_nodes as ext_bufs directly and save another copy. However, we can't do that at the moment, because while data_nodes and MCLBYTES are the same size (2048), the data_nodes contain a header structure at the beginning of that data. (Perhaps we should consider reworking net_buffer to store data differently to make that possible. It would also have the advantage that data_nodes would start on a page boundary or a half-page boundary, which would make doing direct DMA with them much easier in this and other drivers as well.)

Haiku
Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs
Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.
Goals
- Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
- Clean, clear, concise code.
- Unified desktop environment.
Trying Haiku
Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.
Compiling Haiku
See ReadMe.Compiling.
Contributing
Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!
