Subject: [PATCH] eth: fix 'warning: No MAC address set' when using EEPROM MAC
Date: Wed, 15 Dec 2010 10:04:36 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ddb18a8573b9f5daac2cc3d8ef53da7ee41dbbc0.1292400209.git.baruch@tkos.co.il> (raw)
When retrieving the MAC address from EEPROM, we must notify the networking core
at eth registration time. Otherwise we get the 'No MAC address set' warning on
the first network access, and the MAC address is set to a random value instead
of the real one.
