From 1711ba166e5f7148bc41b5e24f7f282ffc055515 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ivan Vecera Date: Fri, 19 Jan 2018 20:23:50 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] be2net: restore properly promisc mode after queues reconfiguration [ Upstream commit 52acf06451930eb4cefabd5ecea56e2d46c32f76 ] The commit 622190669403 ("be2net: Request RSS capability of Rx interface depending on number of Rx rings") modified be_update_queues() so the IFACE (HW representation of the netdevice) is destroyed and then re-created. This causes a regression because potential promiscuous mode is not restored properly during be_open() because the driver thinks that the HW has promiscuous mode already enabled. Note that Lancer is not affected by this bug because RX-filter flags are disabled during be_close() for this chipset.
