From 0bde95690d65653e420d04856c5d5783155c747c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Williamson Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2009 09:02:50 +0000 Subject: virtio_net: Add support for VLAN filtering in the hypervisor VLAN filtering allows the hypervisor to drop packets from VLANs that we're not a part of, further reducing the number of extraneous packets recieved. This makes use of the VLAN virtqueue command class. The CTRL_VLAN feature bit tells us whether the backend supports VLAN filtering.
