By default NIXLF is set in UCAST mode. This patch adds a new mailbox message which when sent by a RVU PF changes this default mode. When promiscuous mode is needed, the reserved promisc entry for each of RVU PF is setup to match against ingress channel number only, so that all pkts on that channel are accepted and forwarded to the mode change requesting PF_FUNC's NIXLF. PROMISC and ALLMULTI modes are supported only for PFs, for VFs only UCAST mode is supported. Signed-off-by: Sunil Goutham <sgoutham@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
