Thanks for your submission!
What is the current design on the mxc fec interface's attainment of a MAC address. From the kernel driver it looks like it looks at the IIM(IC identification registers) on the MXC platform(like mx51/35) to look for a programmed mac address and then the set the fec mac to the same .
Looks like with the current mxc_fec driver there is not support for the same. I am thinking of a mechanism to hardcode a fake MAC which would subsequently be picked up by the kernel without using the bd_info structure. Any comments/suggestions?
