Date: Thu, 1 May 2014 15:51:55 +0300 From: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@...lanox.com> To: davem@...emloft.net Cc: netdev@...r.kernel.org, roland@...nel.org, jackm@....mellanox.co.il, matanb@...lanox.com, amirv@...lanox.com, Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@...lanox.com> Subject: [PATCH net 3/4] net/mlx4_core: Load the Eth driver first When running in SRIOV mode, VM that is assigned with a non-provisioned Ethernet VFs get themselves a random mac when the Eth driver starts. In this case, if the IB driver startup code that deals with RoCE runs first, it will use a zero mac as the source mac for the Para-Virtual CM MADs which is buggy. To handle that, we change the order of loading.
