Eoe mac address now derived from unique mac.
The EoE MAC address is now derived from the NIC part of the first global
unique MAC address of the linked list of available network interfaces or
otherwise the MAC address used by the EtherCAT master. The EoE MAC address
will get the format 02:NIC:NIC:NIC:RP:RP where NIC comes from the unique MAC
address (if available) and RP is the ring position of the EoE slave.

Virtual TTY interface driver for EtherCAT slave supporting serial comm
Quick installation guide:
./configure --with-linux-dir=/your/linux/directory --enable-tty
make all modules
make modules_install install
rcethercat start
insmod tty/ec_tty.ko
insmod examples/tty/ec_tty_example.ko
The default settings for the serial line are 9600 8 N 1.
The tty example operates a Beckhoff EL6002 at ring position 1. For a short
test, connect port X1 with a serial port via null modem cable. If a minicom is
started on that port and the below command is entered, the output should be
visible in minicom:
echo "Hello World" > /dev/ttyEC0
Have a lot of fun!
