Hi Alessio, it is my understanding that the "ALLMULTI" tag will only show up in the output of "ip link" or "ifconfig" if the kernel has directly requested the driver to enter that mode (e.g. via "ifconfig oob_net0 allmulti"). If the kernel configures the oob_net0 interface to have more multicast MAC addresses than supported in hardware but has not directly configured ALLMULTI mode (as in your example above this comment), the driver will set its interface into ALLMULTI mode internally to implement the proper filtering but the "ALLMULTI" tag will not be shown in the output of "ifconfig oob_net0". I believe the driver should not set ALLMULTI bit in "netdev->flags" in this case.
