From f24f790f8eb8bca00c66781b21de2a9ff7cd1c00 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com> Date: Sun, 4 May 2014 17:07:24 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx4_core: Load the Eth driver first When running in SRIOV mode, VM that is assigned with a non-provisioned Ethernet VFs get themselves a random mac when the Eth driver starts. In this case, if the IB driver startup code that deals with RoCE runs first, it will use a zero mac as the source mac for the Para-Virtual CM MADs which is buggy. To handle that, we change the order of loading. Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
