Subject: [net-next PATCH v2 6/8] ixgbe: allow RAR table to be updated in promisc mode
Date: Wed, 11 Apr 2012 23:57:43 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120412065742.3112.2269.stgit@jf-dev1-dcblab> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120412064858.3112.65818.stgit@jf-dev1-dcblab>

This allows RAR table updates while in promiscuous. With
SR-IOV enabled it is valuable to allow the RAR table to
be updated even when in promisc mode to configure forwarding
