[systemd-devel] systemd-networkd: setting the MAC address for a .netdev unit?

Hi,
I'd like to configure the MAC address of a bridge device statically (as
bridges tend to change their MAC address depending on the order the
ports are added on Linux otherwise), but there doesn't seem to be a way
to match for a bridge in a .link unit. This would be very useful for
macvlans as well.

Am I missing something? If not, it would be great if such a feature
could be added, either by providing a way to match for such netdevs in a
.link unit, or just by allowing a [Link] section in the .netdev unit
(which would be more concise in my opinion).

Thanks,
Matthias
