Subject: [PATCH v5 08/10] tap: change signature of function tap_push_l2h()
Date: Fri,  5 Sep 2025 22:11:52 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250906021154.2760611-9-jmaloy@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250906021154.2760611-1-jmaloy@redhat.com>

In the following commits it must be possible for the callers of
function tap_push_l2h() to specify which source MAC address should
be added to the ethernet header sent over the tap interface. As
a preparation, we now add a new argument to that function, still
without actually using it.

Signed-off-by: Jon Maloy <jmaloy@redhat.com>

---
v3: -Improved comment for src_mac argument, as suggested by Stefano.
v4: -Re-added comment in tap.c and remove redundant argument check
     in tap_push_l2()
v5: -Ensured that MAC argument to tap_push_l2h() never is NULL.
