Previously BMC's MAC address is calculated by simply adding 1 to the last byte of network controller's MAC address, and it produces incorrect result when network controller's MAC address ends with 0xFF. The problem can be fixed by calling eth_addr_inc() function to increment MAC address; besides, the MAC address is also validated before assigning to BMC.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
