This patch allows to dynamically allocate the loopback like an usual network device. This global static variable loopback_dev has been replaced by a netdev pointer and the init function does the usual allocation, initialization and registering of the loopback. This patchset is splitted in two parts, the first one is a big but trivial patch which replace the usage of the static variable loopback_dev by the usage of a pointer. The second patch is the interesting part where the loopback is dynamically allocated. -- _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
