On Tue, Oct 10, 2017 at 2:41 PM, John Lo (loj) <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: The two APIs affected are the older ones in L2FIB which use “u64 mac” instead of “u8 mac[6]” to pass MAC addresses: • L2fib_add_del • L2_fib_table_details I believe it is a good change to reduce confusion wrt how 6-byte MAC is stored in u64 with big/little endian hosts. The change would also require updates to user programs of these APIs, which we believe should be minimal. If we don’t get strong objections within a week, we will assume the change is acceptable and allow this API change in the master branch. It won’t affect 17.10 release. Regards, John Sure. +1 jdl
