jclulow: stop using node? never.

anyone here who has a mr_sas HBA and wants to test something?

Woodstock: send me a mail olbohlen⊙ed and I will test

Woodstock I can test as well (as long as data is preserved:D)

I have fresh machines I could re-install...

jclulow: Where do you keep the PSARC archive these days?

Oh, I think I got it: illumos.org/opensolaris/ARChive/PSARC

gah... ISTR landmines with this in the past.. but using libuuid apparently brings in half of /lib my god

Alas, it needs libdlpi to get the MAC address or whatever

I think libdladm.so.1 is actually the heavy hitter

If you need to unpick that dependency, I would suggest you could do two things: (1) try getifaddrs(3SOCKET) with AF_LINK to see if you can find a MAC address, and (2) if that fails, try to use dlpi_walk but use dlopen() to get it, and just report failure if you can't do that.

libuuid just needs any MAC address, I believe, to proceed -- and only if you're not making, like, a UUIDv4 thing
