Multicast support with Linux Ethernet drivers

[Richard Braun]

Hello,

I'm currently developing a packet filter, and I noticed that GNU Mach
doesn't catch Ethernet multicast packets (though broadcast packets are
correctly handled). I temporarily set mc_filter[0] and mc_filter[1] to
0xffffffff (as it is done for promiscuous mode) in driver rtl8139, and
then multicast works. My problem is that I'd like to know if there is
a generic solution to enable multicast support by default on all
drivers which support it.
