Recent versions of firmware for SFC9100 adapters add support for filter
chaining, in which packets matching multiple filters are delivered to all
filters' recipients, rather than only the highest match-priority filter as was
previously the case.
This patch series enables this feature and redesigns the filter handling code
to make use of it; in particular, subscribing to a multicast address on one
function no longer prevents traffic to that address reaching another function
which is in promiscuous or allmulti mode.
If the firmware does not support filter chaining, the driver will fall back to
the old behaviour.
Daniel Pieczko (5):
sfc: enable cascaded multicast filters in MCFW
sfc: add output flag decoding to efx_mcdi_set_workaround
sfc: warn if other functions have been reset by MCFW
sfc: re-factor efx_ef10_filter_sync_rx_mode()
sfc: support cascaded multicast filters
Edward Cree (3):
sfc: update MCDI protocol definitions
sfc: cope with ENOSYS from efx_mcdi_get_workarounds()
sfc: clean fallbacks between promisc/normal in
efx_ef10_filter_sync_rx_mode
Jon Cooper (1):
sfc: Insert multicast filters as well as mismatch filters in
promiscuous mode
