Public bug reported: Using 3.19.0-28-generic #30~14.04.1-Ubuntu with stock i40e driver version 2.2.2-k makes every 'non physical' MAC output frame appear as copied back at input, as if the switch was doing frame 'mirroring' (and/or hair-pinning).
FYI same setup, with i40e upgraded to 1.2.48 from http://downloadmirror.intel.com/25282/eng/i40e-1.2.48.tar.gz behaves OK, fyi also we did a port mirroring setup at the switch directed to a different physical port for debugging, and didn't observe these frames to be physically present.
