Emulating more than one network interface with runqemu is a bit tricky,
but possible. For example, the following leads to an emulated device with
eth0 and eth1:
QB_NETWORK_DEVICE_prepend = " \
-device virtio-net-device,mac=52:54:00:12:34:03 \
"
or
QB_NETWORK_DEVICE_append = " \
-device virtio-net-pci,mac=52:54:00:12:34:03 \
"
When booting Qemu with two NICs, the kernel does not know which
interface the specified ip=192.168.7.... command line argument
should be applied. This delays the boot process for a very long
time and a guest wihtout IP configuration.
This add two new configuraton parameters to runqemu:
QB_CMDLINE_IP_SLIRP and QB_CMDLINE_IP_TAP to explicitely specify the ip=
kernel command line arguments for tap and slirp mode.
Note: Simply adding "::eth0" broke some builds on the Yocto autobuilder.
