I dont think we're quite there yet, even without vlans. If I turn on/off tcpdump, there's something about the way that the link is bounced that leaves the device down while tcpdump is running. Then after I exit tcpdump, it bounces things a few more times again, packets flow for a brief interval, and then there's silence. Seems like there's is a workq that results in i40e_service_task->i40e_sync_vsi_filters that periodically resets things. Doing 'ip link set eth0 promisc on' keeps things nice and steady. How is this all supposed to work if I change the macaddr from /sbin/ip using i40e_set_mac() and then jiggle the promisc (either just the flag, or with tcpdump)? (I cant tell because I dont have an x86 machine with i40e handy) To frame the question differently, where all should I be invoking the new i40e_macaddr_init() function from? --Sowmini -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
