This would be libnetfs-based. * Add `tap` support to pfinet, by determining which is desired in `setup_tunnel_device` and then add/remove the ethernet header in `trivfs_S_io_read`/`trivfs_S_io_write`. Similarly, in lwip, in `create_netif_state` / `hurdtunif_device_init`, and then `trivfs_S_io_read`/`trivfs_S_io_write`. * Add support for `EA node inline` storage of xattr, at the very least for getting xattr, see <https://kernel-internals.org/vfs/xattr/#storage-in-ext4> * Add setxattrat/getxattrat/listxattrat/removexattrat, which are just `at` variants of the existing setxattr/getxattr/listxattr/removexattr, that should simply use `__file_name_lookup_at` instead of `__file_name_lookup`. glibc's `7ae60af75b78f408420512c58fd5a08ca7a88bad` is probably a good read to understand the subtelty. -* Make `libbpf` use `libpcap`'s `bpf_filter` and `bpf_validate` instead of using our own copy. +* Make `libbpf` use `libpcap`'s `bpf_filter` and `bpf_validate` instead of using our own copy, after it is made loop-free, see <https://github.com/the-tcpdump-group/libpcap/issues/1434> <a name="porting"></a> ## Porting Packages |
