Re: [Qemu-devel] tun/tap networking: patch for existing tun

[Fabrice Bellard]

Hi,

Sorry for the lack of comment. I mostly use the 'user-net' networking so 
I never bothered much about TUN/TAP.

What I can say is that the '-net xxx' option will be implemented to 
solve the existing issues. My only concern is about ensuring backward 
compatibility (if no one needs it then it is much simpler).

Another point is that I am very tempted to integrate a feature to 
connect several qemu without needing an external program such as VDE. I 
am thinking of it because it would be relatively easy to add to the 
existing user-net code (user-net already simulates a kind of LAN).

Fabrice.
