Subject: [PATCH 2/2] net/mlx5: reset promiscuous modes on device close
Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2026 11:23:32 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260731092332.3833632-2-david.marchand@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260731092332.3833632-1-david.marchand@redhat.com>
Since the DPDK port is backed by a kernel netdevice, leaving this
netdevice in promiscuous mode may have unexpected consequences.
Reset promiscuous and all multicast modes on close.
Fixes: dd4bb90bc3cb ("net/mlx5: use Netlink to enable promisc/allmulti mode")
