Hi All,

We trying to disable VLAN filter on Intel Corporation 82599ES 10-Gigabit
Ethernet controller using ethtool without modifying the driver code.

We can able to disable successfully in the following OS and the ixgbe
driver version.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.1 (Maipo)

Kernel : 3.10.0-229.20.1.el7.x86_64

Ixgbe driver version : *4.0.1-k-rh7.1*


[root@compute05 src]#ethtool -k enp9s0f0

rx-vlan-offload: on

tx-vlan-offload: on

ntuple-filters: off

receive-hashing: on

highdma: on [fixed]

*rx-vlan-filter: off*

vlan-challenged: off [fixed]



[root@compute05 src]#ethtool -K enp9s0f0 rx-vlan-filter off





But we cant able to do the same on the new ixgbe driver version. We
observed rx-vlan-filter as fixed.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.1 (Maipo)

Kernel : 3.10.0-229.20.1.el7.x86_64

Ixgbe driver  version:    *    4.3.13*



[root@compute05 src]#ethtool -k  enp9s0f0

Features for enp9s0f0:

rx-vlan-offload: on

tx-vlan-offload: on

ntuple-filters: off

receive-hashing: on

highdma: on [fixed]

*rx-vlan-filter: on [fixed]*

vlan-challenged: off [fixed]



[root@compute05 src]# ethtool -K  enp9s0f0 rx-vlan-filter off

*Could not change any device features*



Any idea how to overcome this issue?



If any more information needed please let me know.



Thanks in advance.
