Subject: [patch 2/8] qeth: Clear mac_bits field when switching between Layer 2 and Layer 3
Date: Fri, 23 Jul 2010 11:15:04 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100723091549.866454000@de.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20100723091502.678949000@de.ibm.com
[-- Attachment #1: 613-qeth-clear-mac-bits.diff --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 997 bytes --]
From: Carsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com>
This patch fixes a problem that occurs when switching from layer 3 to layer 2
mode. Resetting this mac_bits makes sure that we retrieve our mac address from
the card, otherwise the interface simply would'nt work.
