> This bug pops up with NetworkManager on Fedora 21. NetworkManager tends to > stop the interface (nicvf_stop() is called) before changing settings. In > stopped state MAC cannot be sent to a PF. However, when the interface is > restarted (nicvf_open() is called), we ping the PF using NIC_MBOX_MSG_READY > message, and the PF replies back with old MAC address, overriding what we had > after MAC setting from userspace. As a result, we cannot set MAC address using > NetworkManager. > > This patch introduces special tracking of MAC change in stopped state so that > the correct new MAC address is sent to a PF when interface is reopen. > > Signed-off-by: Pavel Fedin <p.fe...@samsung.com> Your patch was corrupted by your email client, please fix this up and resubmit. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in
