Srinivasan,

 these are all sent through linuxonhyperv.com, and fail DMARC because
they have a microsoft.com address but no valid DKIM.

Please fix your email setup.  You need to go through the real
microsoft smtp servers if you use a microsoft.com address. Or you need
to get linuxonhyperv.com fixed as a smtp server with the proper MS
email signing.

               Linus

Thanks Linus, we will fix our email setup.

Regards,

K. Y

Use the new APIs for eliminating a copy on the receive path. These new APIs

help in minimizing the number of memory barriers we end up issuing (in the
ringbuffer code) since we can better control when we want to expose the ring
state to the host.
