NetworkManager, in particular, has carried an out of tree patch to set the permanent address on netdevsim devices to use in its CI for this purpose. This series adds support to netdevsim to set a permanent address on port creation, and adds a test script to test setting and getting of the different L2 address types. v3: https://lore.kernel.org/20250706-netdevsim-perm_addr-v3-0-88123e2b2027@redhat.com v2: https://lore.kernel.org/20250702-netdevsim-perm_addr-v2-0-66359a6288f0@redhat.com v1: https://lore.kernel.org/20250203-netdevsim-perm_addr-v1-1-10084bc93044@redhat.com ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250710-netdevsim-perm_addr-v4-0-c9db2fecf3bf@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski --- 9ae277096fab54cfa01a6dc8b8ca93bc0907b700
