[PATCH] Reordering how tap is initialized

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This is my first patch, so I apoligize for breaking any convention.

This patch modifies the order used in net.c for tap initialization.
It runs the script before the device is opened. This permits the creation of the tap device via a script instead of having to do it in advance.

It also waits for the tap to be closed before running the down script, as this permits the destruction of the tap device afterwards.

It applies to git and kvm-88
