Bruce Robson 46fa06170d [netdrvr] eexpress: IPv6 fails - multicast problems 
Taken from http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10577

I was unable to access a computer containing an Intel EtherExpress 16 network
card using IPv6.

I traced this to failure of neighbour discovery.  When I used an "ip -6 neigh
add" command, on the computer attempting access, to insert a binding between
the IPv6 address of the computer with the Intel EtherExpress 16 network card
and the card's ethernet address, I was able to access that computer using
IPv6.

Neighbour discovery requires working multicast.  The driver sources file
eexpress.c contains an approximately 30 line function eexp_setup_filter used
when loading multicast addresses.

I found 3 problems in this function

1) It wrote the number of multicast addresses to the card instead of the
    number of bytes in the multicast addresses.

2) When loading multiple multicast addresses it loaded the first one
    provided multiple times instead of loading each one once.

3) The setting of pointer 'data' from 'dmi->dmi_addr' occured before the
    test for the error situation of 'dmi' being NULL.

Correcting these problems allows the computer with the Intel EtherExpress 16
network card to found by IPv6 neighbour discovery.

p.s. There is some information on the Intel EtherExpress 16 at
http://www.intel.com/support/etherexpress/vintage/sb/cs-013500.htm
