Subject: [PATCH net-next v2] wireless-drivers: rtnetlink wifi simulation device
This device takes over an existing network device and produces a
new one that appears like a wireless connection, returning enough canned
responses to nl80211 to satisfy a standard network manager. If
necessary, it can also be set up one step removed from an existing
network device, such as through a vlan/80211Q or macvlan connection to
not disrupt the existing network interface.
To use it to wrap a bare ethernet connection:
ip link set eth0 down
ip link set eth0 name buried_eth0
ip link set buried_eth0 up
ip link add link buried_eth0 name wlan0 type virt_wifi
eth0 is renamed to buried_eth0 to avoid a network manager trying to
manage it, as the original network link will become unusuable and only
the wireless wrapper will be functional. This can also be combined with
vlan or macvlan links on top of eth0 to share the network between
distinct links, but that requires support outside the machine for
accepting vlan-tagged packets or packets from multiple MAC addresses.
This is being used for Google's Remote Android Virtual Device project,
which runs Android devices in virtual machines. The standard network
interfaces provided inside the virtual machines are all ethernet.
However, Android is not interested in ethernet devices and would rather
connect to a wireless interface. This patch allows the virtual machine
guest to treat one of its network connections as wireless rather than
ethernet, satisfying Android's network connection requirements.
We believe this is a generally useful driver for simulating wireless
network connections in other environments where a wireless connection is
desired by some userspace process but is not available. Future work can
also include exporting the wireless control plane to userspace, so the
device can configure the behavior of the simulated wireless network
itself.
This is distinct from other testing efforts such as mac80211_hwsim by
being a cfg80211 device instead of mac80211 device, allowing straight
pass-through on the data plane instead of forcing packaging of ethernet
data into mac80211 frames.

First review: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1535460343.5895.56.camel@sipsolutions.net/
Thanks for the detailed review! I believe I've addressed all comments.
The problem we've experienced with routing the hwsim virtual medium from the
inside the VM to outside the VM is this required running hwsim on the host
kernel as well. This is too intrusive for our use-case, whereas wifi that
exists completely inside the VM kernel is much more palatable.
