Hello,
I would like to report that the ethernet ice driver is not capable of
setting promisc mode on at E810-XXV physical interface in the whole
5.18.y kernel line.
Reproducer:
$ ip link set promisc on dev em1
Dmesg error message:
Error setting promisc mode on VSI 6 (rc=-17)
the problem was not observed with 5.17.y
Any chance you can use 'git bisect' to track down the problem commit and
let the developers of it know?
thanks,
I tried it, but it makes the system unbootable. I expect the reason is
that it happened somewhere between 5.17->5.18 so I'm using an
"unstable" kernel.
Is there some way I could bisect just one driver, not a full kernel
between 5.17->5.18?
How do you know it is just "one driver"?
Just a quess based on "git grep". The error message was introduced in
the driver in 5.18-rc*.
The message was introduced with commit 1273f89578f26 ("ice: Fix broken
IFF_ALLMULTI handling"). Given that commit message, it appears to be
at least somewhat likely that reverting this commit will fix your problem.
I would suggest to give it a try.
