Hi,
So I was thinking about the problem of specifying a network bridge
configuration in rumprun, as motivated here:
http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Upstream_QEMU_stubdom
It was easy enough to add bridge manipulation to netconfig, but that doesn't
really help us with specifying the configuration at lauchtime. Assuming we
want to avoid rumpctrl for the "more moving parts" reason, there are, as far
as I can see, two approaches (not really specific to bridge configuration,
so imagine it's a general problem):
1) improve "multiexecutable" support to allow for "barriers", i.e. wait for
all programs [..n-1] to finish before starting to run [n...]. Then bridge
configuration becomes someone else's problem.
2) add support to rumpconfig to be able to specify bridge config via json
