[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 12/13] net: make use of async packet sending API in tap client

[Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com>]

If a packet is queued by qemu_send_packet(), remove I/O
handler for the tap fd until we get notification that the
packet has been sent.

A not insignificant side effect of this is we can now
drain the tap send queue in one go without fear of packets
being dropped.
