Fellows,
I'm debugging a problem in the natsemi.c driver which has the symptom
that muticast reception quits for no apparent reason. Unicast still
works fine, the multicast stream is being sent, but no packets make it
past the hash filter. In versions of the driver, 2.4.19 and before, we
"fixed" this problem by setting ifconfig "allmuti" on the device.
As I'm writing a debug routine, I notice that:
static void __set_rx_mode(struct net_device *dev)
{
...
for (i = 0, mclist = dev->mc_list;
mclist && i < dev->mc_count;
i++, mclist = mclist->next) {
set_bit_le(
dp83815_crc(ETH_ALEN, mclist->dmi_addr) & 0x1ff,
mc_filter); /* WHOOPS!! Shouldn't this be &mc_filter[i*2]
?? */
}
...
}
(see the comment containnig WHOOPS)
Thanks,
Nat
