[ovs-dev] Bug#764847: openvswitch-switch: tuntap issues (commands)

[westlake]

Package: openvswitch-switch
Version: 2.3.0+git20140819-2
Severity: important

(I gave a previous message containing a link to the thread
http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/discuss/2011-October/005914.html  , but 
over here in Debian, the device creates "half-way")

ovs-vsctl add-port <bridge name> <tap dev> -- set Interface <tap dev> 
type=tap

ifconfig -a , would show it is created and in the "down" state

applying, ip link set <tap device> up, ten starting a kvm reveals..

dev/net/tun (<tap device>): Device or resource busy

So the tap device gets created half-way..
