Hi Remy,
This was based on some proof-of-concept work I did 10-11 years ago and
then was completed to a better standard in a GSoC project by yiyus. I
guess Ron also did some similar work? I don't recall if I mentored the
project or whether Ron did, or to what extent there was collaboration.
The work enabled native IP stack through either TAP/TUN devices or use
of pcap. I believe all the relevant work is reflected in
https://github.com/Plan9-Archive/yiyus-vx32, and I believe this also
collects most of the work Ron did. I think that this was enabled by
setting PLAN9TAP / PLAN9PCAP in the 9vx Makefrag.
N.B. The Plan 9 there is also 10 years old and may not be a great
reflection of what you'd get from 9front or any other current systems
(sorry, I don't know who's actively doing what anymore).
Hope this is helpful.
Kind regards,
--dho
