Hi Stephen,
Looking at mac address management, you and Changchun added an entry in
driver ops to be able to change the default mac address with virtio:
http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/commit/?id=5186fb1f37fe986
Other ops functions (mac_addr_add/remove) manage the secondary unicast
mac addresses and have a wrapper function in the API:
http://dpdk.org/doc/api/rte__ethdev_8h.html#aa2b81750086f5f9e55cf65e5cf9f2c58
It seems now that the review of the above patch was too weak and I'd like
these issues to be fixed:
- mac_addr_set must be wrapped by rte_eth_dev_mac_addr_set()
- eth_mac_addr_set_t must be fixed to explicitly state that it
replaces the default address
I'm wondering what was the first intent since virtio_mac_addr_set() is
never called?
