commit 8cf212d402b0a392ed6c89f9e1035cbbf9988478
Author: Justus Winter <address@hidden>
Date:   Sat Nov 5 18:47:34 2016 +0100

    boot: Improve device pass-through.
    
    Previously, the device file was opened once at startup time.  This is
    fragile, as the remote server might die.  Open it at device open time
    instead.
    
    * boot/boot.c (options): Improve documentation.
    (struct dev_map): Rename fields, document, store the name of the
    device file instead of a port.
    (add_dev_map): Update accordingly.
    (lookup_dev): Likewise.
    (ds_device_open): Open the device file here instead.

commit 54c6736341bda9564a028ad3d61d46488e53b8a6

    eth-multiplexer: Generate stable ethernet addresses.
    
    Previously, the ethernet multiplexer generated ethernet addresses for
    the virtual interfaces using a pseudo-random number generator.  This
    has the downside of generating a new address every time.  Generate
    stable pseudo-random addresses instead.
    
    * eth-multiplexer/Makefile (HURDLIBS): Link to libihash.
    * eth-multiplexer/ethernet.c (ether_address): New variable.
    (get_ethernet_address): New function.
    (ethernet_open): Get the ethernet address of the real interface.
    * eth-multiplexer/ethernet.h (ether_address): New declaration.
    * eth-multiplexer/vdev.c (add_vdev): Compute the ethernet address by
    hashing the address of the real interface with the name of the virtual
    interface.

commit 115695afe34e5253816ff0e828054f8c07e2ddbd
Author: Justus Winter <address@hidden>
Date:   Sat Nov 5 18:26:39 2016 +0100

    eth-multiplexer: Avoid local definitions.
    
    * eth-multiplexer/util.h: Include 'net/if_ether.h'.
    (ETH_ALEN): Drop.
    (struct ethhdr): Likewise.
    * eth-multiplexer/vdev.c: Include 'net/if_ether.h'.
    (ETH_HLEN): Drop.

commit fd3b0bc1b318a2cc95ac1f85e308708c4bb8999a
Author: Justus Winter <address@hidden>
Date:   Sat Nov 5 18:05:06 2016 +0100

    eth-multiplexer: Fix retrieving status of virtual interfaces.
    
    Previously, the ethernet multiplexer returned the status of the real
    network device if one was configured.  This had the unfortunate
    consequence that all virtual devices shared the same ethernet address.
    
    * eth-multiplexer/device_impl.c (ds_device_get_status): Always return
    the information for the virtual device.
    * eth-multiplexer/vdev.h (dev_getstat): Add prototype.

commit ed257f4e3320307eca7ed181f6e2dd6e699efb41
Author: Justus Winter <address@hidden>
Date:   Sat Nov 5 17:58:22 2016 +0100

    eth-multiplexer: Fix packet delivery.
    
    * eth-multiplexer/vdev.c (deliver_msg): Do not return an error if
    delivering a message fails.  Doing so prevents all other filters from
    being executed, and more importantly aborts the iteration over all
    virtual devices.
