You should probably make eth_hw_addr_gen() use your new function as a helper.

You'd need to copy the mac address first because eth_addr_add() modifies the mac address in place. I don't see that this is improving anything. -michael

Add a helper to add an offset to a ethernet address. This comes in handy if you have a base ethernet address for multiple interfaces. Signed-off-by: Michael Walle <michael@walle.cc> --- include/linux/etherdevice.h | 14 ++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+)
