The kernel stack can be more consistent by printing the IFF_PROMISC aka promiscuous enable/disable messages with the standard netdev_info message which can include bus and driver info as well as the device. typical command usage from user space looks like: ip link set eth0 promisc <on|off> But lots of utilities such as bridge, tcpdump, etc put the interface into promiscuous mode. old message: [ 406.034418] device eth0 entered promiscuous mode [ 408.424703] device eth0 left promiscuous mode new message: [ 406.034431] ice 0000:17:00.0 eth0: entered promiscuous mode [ 408.424715] ice 0000:17:00.0 eth0: left promiscuous mode Signed-off-by: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>
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.
