Linux kernel source tree
acf3a5c8be
On control planes that allow changing the MAC address of the interface,
the driver must provide a MAC type to avoid errors such as:
idpf 0000:0a:00.0: Transaction failed (op 535)
idpf 0000:0a:00.0: Received invalid MAC filter payload (op 535) (len 0)
idpf 0000:0a:00.0: Transaction failed (op 536)
These errors occur during driver load or when changing the MAC via:
ip link set <iface> address <mac>
Add logic to set the MAC type when sending ADD/DEL (opcodes 535/536) to
the control plane. Since only one primary MAC is supported per vport, the
driver only needs to send an ADD opcode when setting it. Remove the old
address by calling __idpf_del_mac_filter(), which skips the message and
just clears the entry from the internal list. This avoids an error on DEL
as it attempts to remove an address already cleared by the preceding ADD
opcode.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
