Hello,
Following are a few trivial fixes for the DECstation's LANCE driver
needed for the chip's multicast filter to be set up correctly. The patch
is needed for multicast reception to work, in particular for the IPv6's
neighbor discovery. The CRC generation was verified using the AMD's
reference code and it was checked at the run time for selected multicast
addresses as well. Please apply.
