I use qemu or KVM and have a VM (virtual machine) that I run on my
laptop.  I have a small minimal kernel that I can quickly compile
and boot in the VM with out having to reboot my real hardware.  I
set up two tap devices, my VM has two nics, and I make it route
from my desktop to my gateway.

With this setup and can make changes in the kernel and quickly see
them running.
