Consolidate pool_tap4() and pool_tap6() into pool_flush_all(), and tap4_handler() and tap6_handler() into tap_handler_all(). Create a generic packet_add_all() to consolidate packet addition logic and reduce code duplication.

The purpose is to ease the export of these functions to use them with the vhost-user backend.

I wonder if this shouldn't be named tap_handler() instead. As we already have tap_handler_passt() and tap_handler_pasta(), it's not immediately clear what "all" refers to.

I concur, I think tap_handler() is a better name.

A couple of remarks here:

- it's a bit unexpected that this is still in tap.c (it adds packets to a pool, it should be in packet.c judging by this name/description). If we call it tap_queue_packet(), then it probably makes more sense?

- this does more than adding a packet to a pool. It's probably useless to describe in detail what this does, as the function body is anyway rather short and clear, but the current description could be a bit misleading. What about "Queue/capture packet, update notion of guest MAC address"?

So, given this, I think it does make more sense for this to be in tap.c than packet.c. How about calling it tap_add_packets().

It's a single packet it adds, so perhaps tap_add_packet()?

...

- what happens if you just call packet_add() from here, without dealing with 'func' and 'line'? I think it's fine to print in tracing output name and lines from this function, instead of the ones from the caller. It's obvious who the caller is

It is as of this patch, but I believe the idea is this will also be called from VU code down the line.

Okay, but even then, it would be obvious from previous tracing output who the caller is. What's relevant here is to log that something went wrong while adding a packet to an IPv4 or IPv6 pool. I don't think we should bother passing around function name and line to log anything else.
