           Summary: bnx2 driver needs to be updated to work with Xen
           Product: Xen
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Hardware Support
        AssignedTo: xen-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: xpoinsard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx


The bnx2 driver included in kernel 2.6.18 doesn't work with Xen manipulations
regarding Mac adresses.
With an updated version like this one :
http://linux.dell.com/files/bnx2/xen-fix/
the network driver is working. This bug fix is detailled in the driver
changelog.
Updating this driver would save many users of xen having this broadcom network
card.

This has been tested with Xen 3.0.3 and Xen 3.1.
