Subject: [PATCH] kni: use dedicated function to set random MAC address

[ upstream commit 2ee8c67ef9399759cb0d3f34b2c9fb6ea0ecc832 ]
|
||
|
||
eth_hw_addr_random() sets address type correctly.
|
||
|
||
eth_hw_addr_random() is available since Linux v3.4, so
|
||
no compat is required.
|
||
|
||
Also fix the warning:
|
||
warning: passing argument 1 of ‘memcpy’ discards ‘const’
|
||
qualifier from pointer target type
|
||
|
||
Variable dev_addr is done const intentionally in Linux v5.17 to
|
||
prevent using it directly.
|
||
|
||
Fixes: ea6b39b5b847 ("kni: remove ethtool support")
