From 56768045186c183f1d6e5cd916dd07751a777a8d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tushar Dave Date: Thu, 7 Jan 2016 14:17:03 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] ixgbe: Fix for RAR0 not being set to default MAC addr 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.
