What is the test setup you are using? So that I can also test
I verified the program in this minimal test setup, I did not see any
issue with the mac addresses being set.

Below is the test setup.

machine 1                                             machine 2
(90.0.0.2)port 1 ===============>port3(90.0.0.1)
                                                               ||
(80.0.0.2)port 2<================port4(80.0.0.1)
traffic gen                                             xdp program

Below are the steps followed to run the program.

 Assigned ips in different subnets to interfaces 3 and 4
Ip of port 1 is in the same subnet as port 3
Ip of port 2 is in the same subnet as port 4
sysctl -w net.core.bpf_jit_enable=1
./xdp_router_ipv4 eth0 eth1

Note: The program will not generate arp requests. Proper arp entries
need to be added to get the packets forwarded correctly.
