Guest network devices can set 'overflow' when there are a number of multicast ips configured. For virtio_net, the limit is only 64. In this case, the list of mac addresses is empty and the 'overflow' condition is set. Thus, the guest will currently receive no multicast traffic in this state.
When 'overflow' is set in the guest, let's turn this into ALLMULTI on the host.

I wonder if we can do something like: if (virNetDevSetRcvAllMulti(ifname, guestFilter->multicast.overflow) < 0) { VIR_WARN("Couldn't set allmulticast flag to '%s' for " "device %s while responding to " "NIC_RX_FILTER_CHANGED", virTristateSwitchTypeToString(virTristateSwitchFromBool(guestFilter->multicast.overflow)), ifname); } Otherwise looking good.

Ok, I didn't change this call (just moved down). Also, there are other calls in syncNicRxFilterMultiMode() to virNetDevSetRcvMulti() and virNetDevSetRcvAllMulti() that just check for non-zero. Should those be changed as well? If so, I think that should done in a separate patch?

I wonder if we can do something like:
if (virNetDevSetRcvAllMulti(ifname, guestFilter->multicast.overflow) < 0) { VIR_WARN("Couldn't set allmulticast flag to '%s' for " "device %s while responding to " "NIC_RX_FILTER_CHANGED", virTristateSwitchTypeToString(virTristateSwitchFromBool(guestFilter->multicast.overflow)), ifname); }
Ok, will fix. Thanks, -Jason
