[PATCH v5 2/4] virtio_net: Add the check for vdpa's mac address
Posted by Cindy Lu 1 week ago
When using a VDPA device, it is important to ensure that the MAC
address is correctly set. The MAC address in the hardware should
match the MAC address from the QEMU command line. This is a recommended
configuration and will allow the system to boot.

QE tested this series of patches with virtio-net regression tests,
everything works fine.
