Re: [libvirt] [PATCHv2 1/2] util: allow sending mac addr to virNetNewLink without ifindex

From: Laine Stump <laine(a)redhat.com&gt; Although until now, any use of the extra_args argument (a pointer to a struct containing extra attributes to add the the RTM_NEWLINK message) would always have the ifindex and mac set, so the code could assume it was safe to add both to the message if extra_args != NULL. There is now a use for setting a MAC address in the RTM_NEWLINK without setting the ifindex, so we should check each of these separately.
