Adding tap interface to veth is for usecases that forwards \npackets between host and VMs. This eliminates the need for an additional \nsoftware bridge. This can be extended to create both the peer interfaces as\ntap interfaces. These patches are a step in that direction.\n\nSainath Grandhi (3):\n  net: Adding API to parse IFLA_LINKINFO attribute\n  net: Abstracting out common routines from veth for use by vethtap\n  vethtap: veth based tap driver\n\n drivers/net/Kconfig                 |   1 +\n drivers/net/Makefile                |   2 +\n drivers/net/{veth.c => veth_main.c} |  80 ++++++++++---\n drivers/net/vethtap.c               | 216 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++\n include/linux/if_veth.h             |  13 +++\n include/net/rtnetlink.h             |   3 +\n net/core/rtnetlink.c                |   8 ++\n 7 files changed, 308 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-)\n rename drivers/net/{veth.c => veth_main.c} (89%)\n create mode 100644 drivers/net/vethtap.c\n create mode 100644 include/linux/if_veth.h"
