Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

Net core - __dev_set_promiscuity - prints a message already when promiscuous mode in entered/left, therefore we don't have to do this in the driver too. Also the driver message would be misleading (would be because "link" message level is disabled per default) because it would print "promisc mode enabled" even if it's being left. Reason is that __dev_change_flags() calls dev_set_rx_mode() before touching the promisc flag. Signed-off-by:Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com> Signed-off-by:
