From 965e613d299cdcc9393765f68b92591f20ed0dcc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Aring Date: Mon, 2 Mar 2015 15:10:03 +0100 Subject: ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix ARPHRD to ARPHRD_6LOWPAN Currently there exists two interface types with ARPHRD_IEEE802154. These are the 802.15.4 interfaces and 802.15.4 6LoWPAN interfaces. This is more a bug because some userspace applications checks on this value like wireshark. This occurs that wireshark will always try to parse a lowpan interface as 802.15.4 frames. With ARPHRD_6LOWPAN wireshark will parse it as IPv6 frames which is correct. Much applications checks on this value to readout the EUI64 mac address which should be the same for ARPHRD_6LOWPAN. BTLE 6LoWPAN and ieee802154 6LoWPAN will share now the same ARPHRD.
