Subject: [PATCH 0/2] HW VLAN filtering control
Date: Fri, 27 Jul 2007 13:55:23 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1185569723.28574.8.camel@strongmad> (raw)
This patchset adds the capability to disable hardware VLAN filtering at
runtime via the existing vconfig utility. It's useful for debugging
purposes.
The first patch modifies the VLAN subsystem to define the flag, and to
support passing the flag on to the base driver.
The second patch modifies e1000 to support the flag. Since it's only
one function, other drivers can be easily modified to support this
functionality.
vconfig is used without modification to enable or disable filtering:
# vconfig [vlan-interface] 2 1
will disable filtering, and
# vconfig [vlan-interface] 2 0
will enable filtering.
