Greetings, We make embedded boards that often have on-board PCIe based NIC's that have MAC addresses stored in an EEPROM (not within NIC's NVRAM). I've struggled with a way to have boot firmware assign the mac's via device-tree and I find that only some drivers support getting the MAC from device-tree anyway.
What is the appropriate way to assign vendor MAC's to a NIC from boot firmware, or even in userspace? Best regards, Tim
