Support for Pasta

[53c70r]

Please support "network_mode: pasta" since this seams to be the only solution to fully support ipv4, ipv6 and real source IP signalling.

please provide me with minimal podman cli command do run two busybox http containers in pasta mode?

is this is the same as podman network create -o mode=passthru mynet1

https://docs.podman.io/en/latest/markdown/podman-network-create.1.html

mode: This option sets the specified ip/macvlan mode on the interface. Supported values for macvlan are bridge, private, vepa, passthru. Defaults to bridge.

here I see it in podman run ...
but I need it as podman network create if possible

hmm... Here is mentioned, that there will be changes around "pasta" in podman-network-create:
https://docs.podman.io/en/latest/markdown/podman-network-create.1.html#description

NOTE: The support for the network name “pasta” is deprecated and will be removed in the next major release because it is used as a special network mode in podman run/create --network.

That propably means, that podman network create won't work with pasta.

But it also means, that something like this should continue to work:
https://docs.podman.io/en/latest/markdown/podman-run.1.html#network-mode-net:~:text=user%2Ddefined%20networks.-,pasta,-%5B%3AOPTIONS%2C%E2%80%A6%5D%3A%20use

podman create --network="pasta" -d --name busybox1 busybox httpd -f -p 8080
podman create --network="pasta" -d --name busybox2 busybox httpd -f -p 8080
