Subject: [PATCH net 1/2] net: dev_queue_xmit_nit: fix skb->vlan_tci field value
Date: Tue, 8 Jan 2013 19:51:32 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1357671093-9605-2-git-send-email-dborkman@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1357671093-9605-1-git-send-email-dborkman@redhat.com>
VLAN packets that are locally injected through taps will loose their
skb->vlan_tci value when they pass dev_hard_start_xmit and get looped
back to a packet sniffer via dev_queue_xmit_nit. Besides others, this
meta data is used in Linux socket filtering for VLANs. Tested with a
VLAN ancillary ops filter.
Patch is based on a previous version by Jiri Pirko.
