By default, a tap netdevice is of no use when not fed by a separate process. The ability to automatically feed it from another netdevice allows applications to capture any kind of traffic normally destined to the kernel stack. This patch implements this ability through a new optional "remote" parameter. Packets matching filtering rules created with the flow API are matched on the remote device and redirected to the tap PMD, where the relevant action will be performed.
