[PATCHv1 6/7] TAP: tap as an independent module

From: Sainath Grandhi
Date: Fri Jan 06 2017 - 17:35:04 EST


This patch makes tap a separate module for other types of virtual interfaces, for example,
ipvlan to use.

+ TAP module serves two purposes. This can be used as library of functions
+ for virtual interfaces to implement tap functionality.
+
+ This module also includes character device file and socket operations
+ that can be used by virtual interface implementing tap.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
+ will be called tap.
