Commit 19dffdc ("[efi] Allow for creating devices with no EFI parent
device") relaxed the restriction on attempting to create SNP devices
when no EFI parent device is available, with the result that the test
network devices created when running the IPv4 tests are now registered
as SNP devices.
Since the dummy EFI parent device path is fixed and the test network
device MAC addresses are empty, the SNP devices end up with identical
constructed device paths and registration of the second and subsequent
devices will fail since device paths must be unique.
Fix by assigning MAC addresses to the test network devices.

iPXE network bootloader
iPXE is the leading open source network boot firmware. It provides a full PXE implementation enhanced with additional features such as:
-
boot from a web server via HTTP or HTTPS,
-
boot from an iSCSI, FCoE, or AoE SAN,
-
control the boot process with a script,
You can use iPXE to replace the existing PXE ROM on your network card, or you can chainload into iPXE to obtain the features of iPXE without the hassle of reflashing.
iPXE is free, open-source software licensed under the GNU GPL (with some portions under GPL-compatible licences).
You can download the rolling release binaries (built from the latest commit), or use the most recent stable release.
