Subject: [Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH net] ice: Fix MAC address setting
Date: Wed, 23 Mar 2022 14:58:29 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220323135829.4015645-1-ivecera@redhat.com> (raw)
Commit 2ccc1c1ccc671b ("ice: Remove excess error variables") merged
the usage of 'status' and 'err' variables into single one in
function ice_set_mac_address(). Unfortunately this causes
a regression when call of ice_fltr_add_mac() returns -EEXIST because
this return value does not indicate an error in this case but
value of 'err' value remains to be -EEXIST till the end of
the function and is returned to caller.
Prior this commit this does not happen because return value of
ice_fltr_add_mac() was stored to 'status' variable first and
if it was -EEXIST then 'err' remains to be zero.
The patch fixes the problem by reset 'err' to zero when
ice_fltr_add_mac() returns -EEXIST.
Fixes: 2ccc1c1ccc671b ("ice: Remove excess error variables")
