[Devel] Re: [PATCH] net: Add etun driver

[Stephen Hemminger]

Why not implement a true virtual network rather than simple
tunnel pairs?

You should use sysfs attributes for this rather than
ethtool.

If not supported, then no stub needed just leave null.

Use alloc_etherdev() instead.

Doing create/delete via module parameter is wierd.
Why not either use an ioctl, or sysfs.

Why bother it is just advertising noise...
