Hello.

At my organization, we would prefer to use QEMU with a bridged tap network 
backend rather than the user-mode SLIRP backend because this allows us to dial 
into the VM from the host.  I had written a bbclass in our layer to extend 
qemuboot-xilinx.bbclass and edit the qemuboot.conf file to make this change, 
and this had worked for us in rel-v2021.2.

Now I am migrating us to rel-v2022.1 and this no longer works because the 
qemu-oe-bridge-helper native binary is not compiled.  I found a change with 
commit hash dc2f1f19a5e8d3e88e49b168bad8290f7c871dc5 which, among other things, 
suppresses he compilation of the qemu-oe-bridge-helper tool and only compiles a 
tunctl utility.

I'm scratching my head trying to figure out how I should deal with this, and 
what was the intention?  Am I to take it that using QEMU network backends other 
than what's hard-coded by Xilinx recipes is simply not supported by Xilinx 
Yocto layers?  Or if it is, what would be the recommended approach to enable 
the bridged tap backend?

Thanks,
Corey
