This is wrong and disallows Open-Stack to properly function in Para-Virtual configuration. How reproducible: just put the NIC to promiscuous mode and send packet from another node tagged any vlan which was not previously configured on the NIC vlan filter, it will not be accepted. Actual results: ARP packets sent on vlan 52 packets are dropped Expected results: packets should received Host info: #uname -a Linux dev-h-vrt-006 4.2.0-16-generic #19-Ubuntu SMP Thu Oct 8 15:35:06 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux #lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 15.10 Release: 15.10 Codename: wily The following upstream commit fix it: commit c07543431e9f3d126d083808efa0e76461d8833b Author: Achiad Shochat <ach...@mellanox.com> Date: Thu Oct 8 15:26:18 2015 +0300 net/mlx5e: Disable VLAN filter in promiscuous mode When the device was set to promiscuous mode, we didn't disable VLAN filtering, which is wrong behaviour, fix that. Now when the device is set to promiscuous mode RX packets sent over any VLAN (or no VLAN tag at all) will be accepted.
