++ * a new key and all the allocaed MACs have been
++ * assigned a random but valid MAC will be return
++ * (and this will be stored for later retrieval
++ * under the given key.)
++ *
++ * Sequencing:
++ * The MAC ids must be added before any driver tries to use them
++ * (this is obvious isn't it?) This can be made to happen by
++ * sequencing the initcalls correctly. The module or kernel
++ * parameters have been handled before any init call happens.
++ * The important trick here is to ensure that the platform
++ * initialises any devices with MAC ids *before* any devices
++ * which might use them.
++ *
++ * When this code is a module any other module which adds a
++ * MAC should be modprobed before modules for ethernet
++ * devices.
++ *
++ * The failure case is 'soft' - the device will get a valid, but
++ * random, MAC and the real allocated MACs will never get used.
++ * This can be seen by looking at the list of ids in sysfs (there
++ * will be extra, random, ones after the allocated ones).
++ *
++ * Recommendations:
++ * For ethernet drivers which are known to be the sole driver on
++ * the board (without a built in MAC) and where the number of
++ * devices driven is known simply use an index 0..(n-1) as a
++ * key for each of the n devices.
++ *
++ * This is the common case, it works where one driver handles
++ * multiple devices so long as the total number of devices can
++ * be determined reliably. It is sufficient merely to maintain
++ * a global count of the number of devices initialised so far,
++ * just so long as the initialisation order is consistent.
++ *
++ * When the driver is generic and the board may be populated with
++ * other devices which allocate MACs from the maclist pool and
++ * use different drivers create a random key and compile this into
++ * the code. Use this as the base for all devices from the driver
++ * (using a global device count for this driver if necessary).
++ *
++ * With the second strategy the assignment of MACs will depend on
++ * the order of initialisation of the different drivers. To avoid
++ * this provide a kernel (or module) command line parameter to
++ * specify a base index and (optional) count for each driver or
++ * pass in a (struct resource) with the start and end of the keys
++ * to pass to maclist_read. Either method allows the higher levels
++ * (boot loader or machine description) to specify which MACs in
++ * the list to assign to each device.
