The path to resolution is known, but the work has not been done.
OS-Solaris
Milestone
I have reports from Twitter (see below) that many of my improvements that I've placed in illumos files also work on Solaris systems
(which isn't particularly surprising given how old these APIs are... (the fact that the binaries worked means that even the tuntap driver ioctls match.)
I propose moving these changes from the illumos files to the solaris files. The changes is effectively a noop for illumos and opens up this code to Solaris systems.
I will provide a CR with the work completed. Most of the changes include tests, so between API stability, user test reports and CI builds, if the CI builds pass, the moves I'm proposing should all be safe for Solaris.
