Hi Tom,
This patch introduces tuntap support to networkd.
Example conf
file : tuntap.netdev
[NetDev]
Name=tuntap-test
Kind=tuntap
[TUNTAP]
Hm, maybe call this TunTap instead?
Mode=tap
OneQueue=true
MultiQueue=true
PacketInfo=true
I wonder if it might be better separate in Tun and in Tap devices. Tun devices
are IP only devices and Tap devices are actual Ethernet devices.
It looks a bit silly that you have to specific Kind=tuntap only to later
specific Mode=tap. Why not just do Kind=tap device? That under Linux the setup
of both Tun and Tap devices happens via /dev/net/tun is just an implementation
detail.
The intention behind keeping Kind=tuntap is related to the driver.
Kind - driver
Mode- how it behaves
. Of cource what you saying is correct implementation details
but Kind is related to the driver.

Marcel
