Subject: [PATCH net 2/2] selftests: net: add test for destination in broadcast packets
Date: Mon, 25 Aug 2025 08:09:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250825060918.4799-2-oscmaes92@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250825060918.4799-1-oscmaes92@gmail.com>

Add test to check the broadcast ethernet destination field is set
correctly.

This test sends a broadcast ping, captures it using tcpdump and
ensures that all bits of the 6 octet ethernet destination address
are correctly set by examining the output capture file.
