Hi.

I'm pushing devlink support to systemd, have the systemd-devlinkd
testsuite based on netdevsim module. That is not currently distributed
in Debian kernel package.

The systemd maintainers exposed desire to be able to run the
systemd-devlinkd test as part of CI which include tests on Debian
systems.

Would it be possible for youto add the module please? It should be
as easy as just adding "CONFIG_NETDEVSIM=m" config option.

Thanks!

I'm not sure this will be possible or in line of the scope but can
you please fill this as wishlist bug against the src:linux package so
we can track the request?

Thanks in advance,

Regards,
Salvatore
