Hi Ben,

Please consider doing this differently. If you change the driver to make 'davinci_eth_set_mac_addr()' meet the signature of 'eth_device->write_hwaddr()', all the environment handling is done automagically. Let me know if you're confused and I'll provide more guidance.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction here. I think I get it now; please correct me if I am wrong: board_eth_init should assign the eth_device->write_hwaddr() function pointer then eth_initialize() will handle calling board_eth_init and will set the MAC address from the ethaddr env var if the MAC address in the eth_device struct is all-zeroes.
