Is there a virtual device that would allow to connect the communication paths from the physical devs into the kernel netlink subsystem in a way that would be more flexible than what is currently avaible? Something like this: Kernel-netlink | virtual dev | --> mapper/conf <-- | physical dev(s) tun/tap,bridge,bond... are devs that incorporate this idea, but don't allow for a flexible configuration.
