To support such a functionality we should wrap it, for the sake of maintainability. The LinuxKPI is not a binary compatibility module, and will at some point have API's diverging from Linux, to fit BSD API's better. There is a plan to use this new function alongside some new network drivers which are not yet committed, to support RSS. --HPS
