From 87ab7f6f2874f1115817e394a7ed2dea1c72549e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vlad Yasevich Date: Thu, 7 Mar 2013 10:21:48 +0000 Subject: macvlan: Set IFF_UNICAST_FLT flag to prevent unnecessary promisc mode. Macvlan already supports hw address filters. Set the IFF_UNICAST_FLT so that it doesn't needlesly enter PROMISC mode when macvlans are stacked. Signed-of-by: Vlad Yasevich Signed-off-by: David S.
