libreCMC/target/linux/uml/patches-4.4/102-pseudo-random-mac.patch

===============================================================================

This patch makes MAC addresses of network interfaces predictable. In
particular, it adds a small routine that computes MAC addresses of based on
a SHA1 hash of the virtual machine name and interface ID.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION:

Applies to vanilla kernel 3.9.4.

+        Virtual network devices inside a User-Mode Linux instance must be
+        assigned a MAC (Ethernet) address. If none is specified on the UML
+        command line, one must be automatically computed. If this option is
+        enabled, a randomly generated address is used. Otherwise, if this
+        option is disabled, the address is generated from a SHA1 hash of
+        the umid of the UML instance and the interface name. The latter choice
+        is useful to make MAC addresses predictable.
