Reading an Ethernet card's hardware address?

Hi, all.

Can anyone point me towards material which explains how one might read the
hardware addresses of any Ethernet cards installed in a Linux x86 system?

I'm not talking about autoprobing. I'm hoping that a safer, more generic
method can be employed once the appropriate driver/module has been loaded.

(Looking over the source in /usr/src/linux/drivers/net wasn't too
illuminating, I'm afraid.)

Thanks.
