I've been having some problem with recent releases when it comes to
tap initialization. It seems that the script is ran after the tap is
opened. I think this is a bit weird and useless as I want the script
to setup the tap by itself.
In net.c, the initialization (I assume) happen in
static int net_tap_init
setup_script is called after tap_open with the fd from tap_open as a
parameter.
However in setup_script, the fd is basically not used.
Would there be any reason not to remove the fd parameter to
setup_script, and then call setup_script before tap_open ?
I've tried it with kvm-86 and it seems to work
You can get the same effect by setting up tap before launching qemu, and
using qemu -net tap,ifname=...,script=no.
