If unicast mac address table is full, and user add a new mac address, the unicast promisc needs to be enabled for the new unicast mac address can be used. So does the multicast promisc. Now this feature has been implemented for PF, and VF should be implemented too. When the mac table of VF is overflow, PF will enable promisc for this VF.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
