Let's stick to RFC until it's ready? Quoting documentation:
netdevsim
~~~~~~~~~
``netdevsim`` is a test driver which can be used to exercise driver
configuration APIs without requiring capable hardware.
Mock-ups and tests based on ``netdevsim`` are strongly encouraged when
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
adding new APIs, but ``netdevsim`` in itself is **not** considered
a use case/user. You must also implement the new APIs in a real driver.
