Hello,

in my OVS installation it seems that packets with wrong FCS are not
forwarded by OVS.  The output of ethtool shows

rx-fcs: off [fixed]
rx-all: off [fixed]

which tells me, that forwarding of packets rising an FCS error is disabled
and can't be enabled as the option is 'fixed'.

Is there any chance to make ovs not dropping any packets and just
forwarding them when ,e. g., an OpenFlow rule is set on the device to
forward all incoming packets on one port to another port?

ethtool -k br0
