[PATCH] net: specify device name in warning

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When a SoC such as VF610 has no addresses programmed for both its
interfaces, the "No MAC address set" warning can be confusing:

    booting 'net'
    WARNING: net: warning: No MAC address set. Using random address a2:e8:be:79:72:01
    WARNING: net: warning: No MAC address set. Using random address aa:d5:d7:10:c0:42

This patch simply specifies the device name in the warning for clarity:

    booting 'net'
    WARNING: net: warning: No MAC address set for eth0. Using random address 5e:92:6b:b8:6e:92
    WARNING: net: warning: No MAC address set for eth1. Using random address 7e:bb:cd:7a:c1:e8
