Subject: [PATCH v19 nf-next 5/5] netfilter: nft_chain_filter: Add bridge double vlan and pppoe
Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 07:53:06 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260224065307.120768-6-ericwouds@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260224065307.120768-1-ericwouds@gmail.com>
In nft_do_chain_bridge() pktinfo is only fully populated for plain packets
and packets encapsulated in single 802.1q or 802.1ad.
When implementing the software bridge-fastpath and testing all possible
encapulations, there can be more encapsulations:
The packet could (also) be encapsulated in PPPoE, or the packet could be
encapsulated in an inner 802.1q, combined with an outer 802.1ad or 802.1q
encapsulation.
nft_flow_offload_eval() also examines the L4 header, with the L4 protocol
known from the conntrack-tuplehash. To access the header it uses
nft_thoff(), but for these packets it returns zero.
Introduce nft_set_bridge_pktinfo() to help populate pktinfo with the
offsets.
