After correcting the broadcast address i saw that broadcast packets are
not accepted when in "multicast" mode (RX_MODE_MULTI).
In the attached version of the patch this was fixed.
This driver would have to be one of the ugliest-looking things in the
kernel. You must have a strong stomach.
Well, yes ;-).
I agree with you, but i did not have the time and the courage to redo
the whole thing.
The original goal was to fix the support for ULE extension headers (e.g.
for link layer security, FEC, etc.),
which is broken in the current kernel versions.
I would welcome a discussion for beautifying the dvb-core (especially
dvb_net.c) module.

Please prepare future patches in `patch -p1' form:
--- a/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvb_net.c
+++ a/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvb_net.c
Thanks for the hint. Will do so in future patches.
Have a nice day!
Christian.
