Subject: [PATCH] vlan:  Support sending custom Ethernet CRC.
Date: Mon,  5 Mar 2012 18:05:58 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1330999558-14270-1-git-send-email-greearb@candelatech.com> (raw)

From: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>

If the underlying device supports sending custom Ethernet CRC,
then enable that feature in the VLANs as well.

NOTE:  You will probably have to disable any
VLAN hardware assist on the underlying device to get
this to properly send packets with this feature enabled.
