Message-Id: <1328735457-29986-2-git-send-email-danny.kukawka@bisect.de> Date: Wed, 8 Feb 2012 22:10:08 +0100 From: Danny Kukawka <danny.kukawka@...ect.de> To: "David S. Miller" <davem@...emloft.net> Cc: Danny Kukawka <dkukawka@...e.de>, netdev@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 01/50] eth: reset addr_assign_type if eth_mac_addr() called If eth_mac_addr() get called, usually if SIOCSIFHWADDR was used to change the MAC of a ethernet device, reset the addr_assign_type to NET_ADDR_PERM if the state was NET_ADDR_RANDOM before. Reset the state since the MAC is no longer random at least not from the kernel side.
