From 803e9895ea2b0fe80bc85980ae2d7a7e44037914 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Olivier Matz olivier.matz@6wind.com Date: Wed, 6 Apr 2022 11:52:51 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ixgbe: fix bcast packets Rx on VF after promisc removal
After a VF requested to remove the promiscuous flag on an interface, the broadcast packets are not received anymore. This breaks some protocols like ARP.
In ixgbe_update_vf_xcast_mode(), we should keep the IXGBE_VMOLR_BAM bit (Broadcast Accept) on promiscuous removal.
This flag is already set by default in ixgbe_set_vmolr() on VF reset.
