Hackers,

Below some patches that implements device cloning (with devfs(5) 
support) for tap(4) device. The implementation is based on resource
manager (just like tun(4) and gif(4)). Please review, test and if 
there is no objection commit. If there are any problems, please let
me know.

http://home.earthlink.net/~evmax/tap-current/if_tapvar.h.context.diff.gz 
http://home.earthlink.net/~evmax/tap-current/tap.4.context.diff.gz 

if you do not like context diff substitute "context" with "unified" :)

thanks,
max
