>
> This patch adds support for VLAN promiscuous with SR-IOV enabled.
>
> The code prior to this patch was only adding the PF to VLANs that the VF had
> added. As such enabling promiscuous mode would actually not add any
> additional VLAN filters so visibility was limited. This lead to a number of issues
> as the bridge and OVS would expect us to accept all VLAN tagged packets when
> promiscuous mode was enabled, and instead we would filter out most if not all
> depending on the configuration of the PF.
>
> With this patch what we do is set all the bits in the VFTA and all of the VLVF bits
> associated with the pool belonging to the PF. By doing this the PF is guaranteed
> to receive all VLAN tagged traffic associated with the RAR filters assigned to the
> PF. In addition we will clean up those same bits in the event of promiscuous
> mode being disabled.
