I tested Markus's patches and it came up with the same ethaddr that U-Boot had. >From U-Boot: ethaddr=d4:94:a1:8b:ec:78 With Markus's changes: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr D4:94:A1:8B:EC:78 But when I changed the code to match what you wrote, I got this: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr CE:5A:8B:0E:44:45 but it also gave me: cpsw 4a100000.ethernet: Random MACID = ce:5a:8b:0e:44:45 which means it failed the valid mac test. Here's how I implemented your change: #if 1 mac_addr[0] = (macid_hi & 0xFF0000) >> 16; mac_addr[1] = (macid_hi & 0xFF00) >> 8; mac_addr[2] = macid_hi & 0xFF; mac_addr[3] = (macid_lo & 0xFF0000) >> 16; mac_addr[4] = (macid_lo & 0xFF00) >> 8; mac_addr[5] = macid_lo & 0xFF; #else mac_addr[5] = (macid_lo >> 8) & 0xff; mac_addr[4] = macid_lo & 0xff; mac_addr[3] = (macid_hi >> 24) & 0xff; mac_addr[2] = (macid_hi >> 16) & 0xff; mac_addr[1] = (macid_hi >> 8) & 0xff; mac_addr[0] = macid_hi & 0xff; #endif Just to be consistent, I updated the code as this too: mac_addr[0] = (macid_hi >> 16) & 0xFF; mac_addr[1] = (macid_hi >> 8) & 0xFF; mac_addr[2] = macid_hi & 0xFF; mac_addr[3] = (macid_lo >> 16) & 0xFF; mac_addr[4] = (macid_lo >> 8) & 0xFF; mac_addr[5] = macid_lo & 0xFF; With the same affect.
