Re: [Kimchi-devel] [RFC]: help, how to get the mac after create a VM interface.
Agree. Not reliable. I did forget that other people may be doing the
exact same thing at the exact same time, though, which makes it a bad
approach.

... and not very reliable. There may be other operations happening at
the same time (like someone else creating another NIC), and the last
interface returned may have been created by other user. It's a web app,
we should expect simultaneous access.
