[Xen-devel] [PATCH V6 net-next 2/5] xen-netback: Add support for multiple queues



From: "Andrew J. Bennieston" <andrew.bennieston@xxxxxxxxxx>

Builds on the refactoring of the previous patch to implement multiple
queues between xen-netfront and xen-netback.

Writes the maximum supported number of queues into XenStore, and reads
the values written by the frontend to determine how many queues to use.

Ring references and event channels are read from XenStore on a per-queue
basis and rings are connected accordingly.
