Title:
[maguro] broadcom dongle host driver sometimes fails to load the
correct mac address
Status in Touch Preview Images:
Confirmed
Status in “linux-maguro” package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Status in “linux-maguro” source package in Saucy:
In Progress
Bug description:
Just reboot with 'adb reboot', and you'll noticed that sometimes it
boots with a default wlan mac address, instead of the real one
available in the phone.
Wrong mac:
wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:90:4c:11:22:33
inet addr:192.168.2.57 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::290:4cff:fe11:2233/64 Scope:Link
Correct mac:
wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr a0:0b:ba:c5:fd:da
inet addr:192.168.2.63 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::a20b:baff:fec5:fdda/64 Scope:Link
Putting the interface down/up makes it get the right mac address when
the default is used, so this might be a race between driver, firmware
and network manager.
