Subject: bonding directly changes underlying device address
Date: Tue, 13 May 2014 14:06:56 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5371FCD0.7050502@mellanox.com> (raw)

Hi Jay, Veaceslav

I see  now that alb_set_slave_mac_addr directly changes the underlying 
device mac address without calling dev_set_mac_address when running in 
TLB mode. Is that on purpose? if yes, can you explain why?

I suspect this can lead to funny (or actually sad) bugs in networking 
drivers, can we avoid that?

Or.
