Yeah, that was the first thing I tried.
I actually found a solution. It was to remove the tap device through
ifconfig first. Then the incomplete arp entry would be removed and I could
restart the tap network.
I wonder if because my tap devices are persistent they caused the arp entry
to stay there after the UML kernel was brought down. Then when I removed
the tap device the kernel saw no reason to keep the incomplete arp entry so
it removed it, clearing the way for me to restart the network interface and
tap device.

Subject: Re: [uml-user] Deleting incomplete ARP entry
Have you tried arp -d ipaddr?
that's what I've done on the rare occassion I've needed to delete an
arp entry, but never under this circumstance.

The incomplete arp entry is on one of the tap devices (tap15) but
entering 'arp -d -i tap15 ipaddr' doesn't remove it. What's the arp
command
that I need to execute to delete the incomplete arp entry?
