From: Michal Wilczynski <michal.wilczynski@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 645603844270b69175899268be68b871295764fe ] After reinitialization of iavf, ice driver gets VIRTCHNL_OP_ADD_ETH_ADDR message with incorrectly set type of MAC address. Hardware address should have is_primary flag set as true. This way ice driver knows what it has to set as a MAC address. Check if the address is primary in iavf_add_filter function and set flag accordingly. To test set all-zero MAC on a VF. This triggers iavf re-initialization and VIRTCHNL_OP_ADD_ETH_ADDR message gets sent to PF. For example: ip link set dev ens785 vf 0 mac 00:00:00:00:00:00 This triggers re-initialization of iavf. New MAC should be assigned. Now check if MAC is non-zero: ip link show dev ens785 Fixes: a3e839d539e0 ("iavf: Add usage of new virtchnl format to set default MAC") Signed-off-by: Michal Wilczynski <michal.wilczynski@xxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Maciej Fijalkowski <maciej.fijalkowski@xxxxxxxxx> Tested-by: Konrad Jankowski <konrad0.jankowski@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen <anthony.l.nguyen@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf/iavf_main.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf/iavf_main.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf/iavf_main.c index 7dfcf78b57fb..f3ecb3bca33d 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf/iavf_main.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf/iavf_main.c @@ -984,7 +984,7 @@ struct iavf_mac_filter *iavf_add_filter(struct iavf_adapter *adapter, list_add_tail(&f->list, &adapter->mac_filter_list); f->add = true; f->is_new_mac = true; - f->is_primary = false; + f->is_primary = ether_addr_equal(macaddr, adapter->hw.mac.addr); adapter->aq_required |= IAVF_FLAG_AQ_ADD_MAC_FILTER; } else { f->remove = false; -- 2.35.1
