Found the following explanation: [BNX2]: Fix VLAN on ASF Always set up the device to strip incoming VLAN tags when ASF is enabled. ASF firmware will not parse packets correctly if VLAN tags are not stripped My fix: #ifdef I_DONT_KNOW_WHAT_ASF_IS_AND_DONT_REALLY_CARE_EITHER if (REG_RD_IND(bp, bp->shmem_base + BNX2_PORT_FEATURE) & BNX2_PORT_FEATURE_ASF_ENABLED) bp->flags |= ASF_ENABLE_FLAG; #endif Any hope of getting this as a ethtool tunable or something similar? There didn't seem to be a BIOS option for this (Dell PE2900), at least. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
