ETHER_ADDR_EQUAL_64B(9) Network device support ETHER_ADDR_EQUAL_64B(9)NAMEether_addr_equal_64bits - Compare two Ethernet addresses
SYNOPSIS
bool ether_addr_equal_64bits(const u8 addr1[6+2], const u8 addr2[6+2]);
ARGUMENTS
addr1[6+2]
Pointer to an array of 8 bytes
addr2[6+2]
Pointer to an other array of 8 bytes
DESCRIPTION
Compare two Ethernet addresses, returns true if equal, false otherwise.
The function doesn't need any conditional branches and possibly uses
word memory accesses on CPU allowing cheap unaligned memory reads.
arrays = { byte1, byte2, byte3, byte4, byte5, byte6, pad1, pad2 }
Please note that alignment of addr1 & addr2 are only guaranteed to be
16 bits.
