slirp: invoke client callback before creating timers The introduction of .timer_new_opaque adds an interesting conundrum. The Slirp* needs to be stored in .timer_new_opaque so that it can be passed back to slirp_handle_timer, but it is not returned by slirp_new and slirp_init until after the first call to .timer_new_opaque (which is in ip6_init). This is a problem for programs that, like QEMU, use more than one Slirp*. Fix them by passing the Slirp* to a callback before slirp_new returns, and initializing the timer afterwards.

libslirp is a user-mode networking library used by virtual machines, containers or various tools.
A C compiler, meson and glib2 development libraries.
(see also .gitlab-ci.yml DEPS variable for the list of dependencies on Fedora)
You may build and install the shared library with meson:
meson build ninja -C build install
And configure QEMU with --enable-slirp=system to link against it.
(QEMU may build with the submodule static library using --enable-slirp=git)
Unfortunately, there are no automated tests available.
You may run QEMU -net user linked with your development version.
Feel free to open issues on the project issues page.
You may clone the gitlab project and create a merge request.
Contributing with gitlab allows gitlab workflow, tracking issues, running CI etc.
Alternatively, you may send patches to slirp@lists.freedesktop.org mailing list.
We intend to use libtool's versioning for the shared libraries and use SemVer for project versions.
