Is there any leaway for more robust error checking or a way to forcibly
destroy the tap node to allow a new one to be created?
Hi Jack,
Since qemu is being run from a parent shell script (runqemu), if qemu
were to crash, I would think the parent shell script would continue on
and destroy the tap device normally. Might you be killing the runqemu
process instead of qemu itself?
I'm not sure if there is a way we could reliably force a cleanup of
tap devices when runqemu starts, because we need to support the case
where multiple instances of qemu sessions are running simultaneously
(each with their own tap device). Off the top of my head I think this
would make the state of tap devices non-deterministic.
Furthermore, we support a mode where an administrator can set up one
or more tap devices, allowing the runqemu user to not need sudo
privileges. So checking for the case where a tap device exists but no
qemu process is running wouldn't work.

Ok, thank you for the information Scott. I think I found the issue today
which is causing the QEmu script to terminate pre-maturely.
I am using the eclipse-poky master branch as my eclipse plugin and it
threw an error today when I tried to debug - which coincided with the
QEmu and terminal window terminating. The errror I recieved was:

Which looks like a CDT bug or the interfacing with CDT. I could file a
bug report if you think it is related to the poky-eclipse plugin?
Cheers,
Jack.
