Subject: [PATCH net-next] ixgbe: Fix for RAR0 not being set to default MAC addr
Date: Wed, 6 Jan 2016 12:05:29 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1452110729-15659-1-git-send-email-tushar.n.dave@oracle.com> (raw)
commit c9f53e63c208 ("ixgbe: Refactor MAC address configuration code")
introduced code that doesn't set HW register RAR0 to default mac address
but FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF. Due to this, ixgbe HW discards all incoming packets
that doesn't have destination mac address equals to FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF.
This commit sets RAR0 correctly to default HW mac address.
