Subject: [PATCHi v2] ibmveth: Add function to enable live MAC address changes
Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2015 23:56:04 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1425102964-3131-1-git-send-email-tlfalcon@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

Add a function that will enable changing the MAC address
of an ibmveth interface while it is still running.

Signed-off-by: Thomas Falcon <tlfalcon@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

v2:
   If h_change_logical_lan_mac fails, dev->dev_addr will not be changed.
