Architecture: x86_64
Machine: amd64
>Description:

simh uses promiscuous mode. Launching and quitting simh several times will 
cause a lockup from which I cannot get into the debugger. Disabling access 
to the network interface allows me to launch and quit simh as many times 
as I like without problems. This happens on different network interfaces. 
Tried with motherboard re* and USB-ethernet aue*.
>How-To-Repeat:

Switch ethernet interface into and out of promiscuous mode.
>Fix:

 I can duplicate this reliably running amd64/7.99.67 in QEMU, when the
 emulated network card is a rtl8139 (re[4], in other words). I cannot
 duplicate it when I use vioif(4) instead. (I imagine given the choices
 QEMU offers, no one would ordinarily pick a Realtek card, so this
 isn't normally encountered.) This is on a Fedora 25 host with QEMU
 2.7.1.

 The catch is, I have to run the full test suite to trigger it. If I
 just run this particular test in isolation, it passes. If I run the
 full test suite, the system consistently hangs when it gets to this
 test, and I have to power cycle the VM. (I guess all the additional
 networking activity that occurs in prior tests somehow contributes to
 this state.)

 Not a problem for me, since I just use vioif(4), but I thought I'd
 mention it.
