Hi, I could not find any previous discussions about this subject on this mailing list after a quick search.
I have been watching the recording[1] of Tom Gundersen's talk at FOSDEM15 and around 13:45 he talks about integrating RTNETLINK support for tuntap devices. I wanted to know if this feature is still of interest to you guys working on systemd-networkd. I am also wondering how a continuous integration might work out: the kernel mainline would probably support both ioctls and rtnetlink APIs. Would this also be the case for systemd-networkd, as a means to support older kernels? The folks at iproute2 seemed to think supporting both APIs was redundant and not interesting[2]. However, I feel like evolution of the APIs cannot be done any other way with backward compatibility. Any thoughts on these matters?
