Re: [Intel-wired-lan] ice: Error setting promisc mode on VSI 6 (rc=-17) @ 5.18.x

[Wilczynski, Michal]

Hi,

Thanks for your e-mail, unfortunately my patch is not fixing this issue.

Adding Grzegorz Siwik,  since he is working on similar issue and already 
has a patch that is being tested/reviewed internally at the moment.

He can you a send patch tomorrow so you can test if it also fixes your 
problem.


BR,

Michał
