Driver/Card information:
-------------------
3c59x: Donald Becker and others. www.scyld.com/network/vortex.html
00:10.0: 3Com PCI 3c905C Tornado at 0xe000. Vers LK1.1.1600:10.0
3Com Corporation 3c905C-TX/TX-M [Tornado] (rev 78)
-------------------
I tried:
# ifconfig eth0 -mulicast
And STILL the frame was processed.
The linux/drivers/net/3c59x.c has this comment:
/* Pre-Cyclone chips have no documented multicast filter, so the only
multicast setting is to receive all multicast frames. At least
the chip has a very clean way to set the mode, unlike many others. */
However, this card is Tornado, the latest rev, so this comment shouldn't
apply.
The families go: Vortex -> Boomerang -> Cyclone -> Tornado
Also, I tried using the latest Donald Becker driver with the same
results:
