[Qemu-devel] [PATCH V4 14/22] tap: introduce a helper to get the name of an interface

[Jason Wang]

This patch introduces a helper tap_get_ifname() to get the device name of tap
device. This is needed when ifname is unspecified in the command line and qemu
were asked to create tap device by itself. In this situation, the name were
allocated by kernel, so if multiqueue is asked, we need to fetch its name after
creating the first queue.

Only linux has this support since it's the only platform that supports
multiqueue tap.
