Hi Andrew Sorry for the previous mails due to my error mail format setting on browser.
I have reproduced the tcpdump issue in my env, but not sure if it is the same issue as you mentioned. Ifdown a slave interface which is under tcpdump capturing will also decrease the master's promiscuous twice. So when I do: a) tcpdump -i ethx b) ifdown ethx c) ifup ethx d) goto a for several times the promiscuous count of master will go negative.
