Hi,
I came through project Dingo, and began some documentation work on the
M_PROMISC item.
If I don't misunderstand what I read, M_PROMISC is used to allow
promiscuous mode work on VLANs, especially when there is multicast. (And
of course, it has nothing to do with the Solaris' one:

Am I right, or should I search somewhere else ?
For the moment, I found it only in src/sys/net/if_ethersubr.c of netbsd.
If it's already done, or near to be done, please let me know.
Thanks
