So the if loop is the same as above if, why not merge them? If you look the code in eth_i40e_dev_init, you will found the dev->data->mac_addrs[0] Is just the hw->mac.addr. And I think we need to make them same all the time. So hw->mac.addr may also need to be updated. Thanks for figure it out! /Jingjing
