The two patches added support of private MAC address, which is derived from
the network (i.e., public) MAC address, and provisioning packet handler for
iSCSI traffic only.
Best regards,
Karen

I think I'm going to ask you to resubmit the drivers/net patch
after the necessary drivers/scsi changes get merged by the scsi
folks.
Thank you.

Hmm, I am wondering how could this merge activity to be coordinated? If
only the driver/scsi change is merged, then it won't compile either,
since it requires the driver/net change.
Is it possible to merge both patches to the scsi or net tree?
Thanks,
Karen

That's rediculious, frankly.
Since they are two seperate changes you are knowingly creating
a bisection point that will not work. That's wrong.
You need to split up the changes so that each and every one of them
are independant and the tree can be checked out at either of them and
everything can be expected to work.

Thanks, understood.
We are submitting a new version that would be isolated to changes to the
net driver only and would not affect scsi driver.
Thanks a lot.
