Import Red Hat's netkvm virtio adapter driver

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      NDIS 5 compatible netkvm driver is open source and can be imported to the ReactOS repository to allow fast VirtIO networking in QEMU and other KVM hardware accelerated virtual machines (many VPS cloud services use it).

      For the code see: https://github.com/virtio-win/kvm-guest-drivers-windows/tree/master/NetKVM/NDIS5

      Hardware identifiers: PCI\VEN_1AF4&DEV_1000 and PCI\VEN_1AF4&DEV_1041

      Since the code is already developed, and probably no major changes are needed to import this driver into repo, adding this ticket to starter-projects for students.
