The permanent mac address should be available for query when the device is not up. NetworkManager, the system network daemon, uses 'ethtool -P' to obtain the permanent address after the kernel start. When the network device is not up, it will return the device busy error with 'ethtool -P'. At that time, it is unable to access the Internet through the permanent address by NetworkManager. I think that the '.begin' is not used to check if the device is up.
