Struct virtio_drivers::VirtIONet

pub struct VirtIONet<'a> { /* private fields */ }

The virtio network device is a virtual ethernet card.

It has enhanced rapidly and demonstrates clearly how support for new features are added to an existing device. Empty buffers are placed in one virtqueue for receiving packets, and outgoing packets are enqueued into another for transmission in that order. A third command queue is used to control advanced filtering features.
