General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_UML_NET_TUNTAP has multiple definitions:

TUN/TAP transport (obsolete) found in arch/um/drivers/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_UML_NET_TUNTAP:

• prompt: TUN/TAP transport (obsolete)
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_UML_NET
• defined in arch/um/drivers/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 5.6–5.19, 6.0–6.12, 6.13-rc+HEAD

Help text

The UML TUN/TAP network transport allows a UML instance to exchange packets with the host over a TUN/TAP device. This option will only work with a 2.4 host, unless you've applied the TUN/TAP patch to your 2.2 host kernel.

To use this transport, your host kernel must have support for TUN/TAP devices, either built-in or as a module.

NOTE: THIS TRANSPORT IS DEPRECATED AND WILL BE REMOVED SOON!!! Please migrate to UML_NET_VECTOR.

If unsure, say N.
