[PATCH] ARM: dts: colibri-imx6ull: fix mac address passing
colibri-imx6ull ethernet device is fec2, while the optional secondary ethernet is fec1, update the ethernet aliases in the .dts file so that ethaddr is set to fec2 and eth1addr to fec1.
Without this change the ethernet interfaces have a different mac address between Linux and U-Boot.

The main dts* files aren't supposed to change between U-Boot and Linux. Is this re-syncing the file with current upstream then? Thanks.

Currently they are out of sync, correct, and because of this difference on the ethernet aliases we have the situation in which the MAC address assigned to the ethernet interfaces is different between Linux an U-Boot.
There are other differences that this patchset is not trying to address and that are not causing any known issues.

OK, we can take this now as an important bugfix.

Please plan to sync the trees up for the next merge window, they are not supposed to stay out of sync. Thanks.

Any progress in applying this patch?
I just applied it again on today's master and it still cleanly applies.
There are other differences that this patchset is not trying to address and that are not causing any known issues.

Yes, we are in the process of doing that. Thanks!

And, re-reading the whole thread in patchwork, I'm going to assume / hope for a full dts resync for the next merge window.

We are in process to update the Linux kernel DTS files now, as soon as this is done we will do the sync. Doing it now would not make sense.
