Is reversing the previous changes to tun.ko intentional?
Perhaps the previous approach with a new CONFIG_TUN_VNET is preferable over this. In particular over making TUN select TAP, a new dependency.
Jason, you also commented about CONFIG_TUN_VNET for the previous version. Do you prefer the old approach, or the new one? (Or if you have another idea, please tell me.)
Ideally, if we can make TUN select TAP that would be better. But there are some subtle differences in the multi queue implementation. We will end up with some useless code for TUN unless we can unify the multi queue logic. It might not be worth it to change the TUN's multi queue logic so having a new file seems to be better.
Thanks
