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

[Tom Gundersen]

Thanks for the reminder. I'll revert the revert :)

We grew some more features since it was first introduced, so will have
to check out how it all works with tunnels, veth devices etc, but
should definitely have this back for 314.

Cheers,

Tom
