Subject: [PATCH 0/6] net/tap: fixes and cleanups
Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2019 10:06:53 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190111180659.5972-1-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)

The tap device (used by vdev_netvsc on Azure) has a bug that
prevents it working with primary/secondary process model because
the device name generation assumed a single process.  The fix for
this is to have the kernel assign the device name (patch #5).

While investigating this, found a number of other small issues
that should be cleaned up as well.

Stephen Hemminger (6):
  net/tap: use strlcpy for interface name
  net/tap: allow full length names
  net/tap: check interface name in kvargs
  net/tap: lower the priority of log messages
  net/tap: let kernel choose tun device name
  net/tap: get rid of global tuntap_name
