Subject: [PATCH 1/3] net: cdc_ncm: add get/set ethernet address functions
Date: Thu, 5 Sep 2019 21:01:59 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1567717318990.49322@Dellteam.com> (raw)

This patch adds support for pushing a MAC address out to USB based
ethernet controllers driven by cdc_ncm.  With this change, ifconfig can
now set the device's MAC address.  For example, the Dell Universal Dock
D6000 is driven by cdc_ncm.  The D6000 can now have its MAC address set
by ifconfig, as it can be done in Windows.  This was tested with a D6000
using ifconfig on an x86 based chromebook, where iproute2 is not
available.
