...e wonder about a couple of things. Our ultimate goal In kubevirt is to consume a pre-created tap device by a kubernetes pod that doesn't have the NET_ADMIN capability. After looking at the current libvirt code, I don't think that is currently supported, since we'll *always* enter the `virNetDevTapCreate` function in [1] (I'm interested in the *tap* scenario). The tap device is effectively created in that function - [2] - by opening the clone device (/dev/net/tun), and calling `ioctl(fd, TUNSETIFF,...)` in it. AFAIK, both of those operations *require* the NET_ADMIN capability. If I'm corre...

...etween the tap0 device in the hypervisor and the ethX device in the VM will totally different . so I think that libvirt must do something about the mac address handling, could you please kindly tell me something about this ?
