Hi folks, I'm studying the network stack and now I'm confronted with something called netisr. It seems ether_demux puts the packet in a netisr queue instead of passing it directly to ip_input (if that was the packet's type). Is this derived from LRP ? I've read their paper and it looks like their network channel (ni) but I'm not sure. I also read about it in 5.2 TODO list about fine-grained locking. Where can I find more information on this?
