[systemd-devel] NetDev Vlan device copy parent mac

[O Neill, David M]

Hi,

 

I have a working patch to copy the mac address from parent link to the
netdev vlan device.

Currently today when using the IP command this is the behavior seen and for
our projects it is the behavior we would like to see for systemd-networkd
also.

In the systemd-networkd solution a mac address is generated using
netdev_get_mac.

 

I have implemented a patch the mimic this behavior, but as far as the
matching goes, which solution would be best accepted for the device
comparison?

By providing the below key options, users can opt for this functionality or
not.  

A key in the below format? Is the CopyParentMac option superfluous?

 

[NetDev] 
Name=enp0s20f0.4094 
Kind=vlan

CopyParentMac=True

Parent=enp0s20f0

 

[VLAN] 
Id=4094

 

Thanks

Dave.
