I wrote slirp bindings, and a helper process that can be used by qemu (https://github.com/elmarco/libslirp-rs & https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2019-April/msg01233.html). I have done some experimentation slowly replacing slirp C code with rust (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/slirp/libslirp/issues/3). I decided to try from scratch as well, using smoltcp. I have dhcp/udp/tcp working to some extent so far (I keep in mind a future libslirp compatible ABI, if needed). -- Marc-André Lureau
