Hi,
i'm using Qemu 0.9.1 on Solaris 10 64bit (0805 edition) SPARC, qemu 32 bit
compiled. It works well, but tap networking initiates tapX interface in
a strange way (device is running, but has not UP flag and cannot be brought
up using ifconfig). For TAP i'm using latest driver from whiteboard.ne.jp.
I have modified vl.c code (exactly the same part of code is in
net.c in current svn version) in function tap_alloc so it is reduced only
to opening /dev/tap and allocating new PPA. After it i use "ifconfig tapX
plumb", "ifconfig tapX ip netmask up" and all works well. See attached
patch - maybe will be useful for somebody.
With best regards,
Pavel Dufek, Czech Republic.
