Message-ID: <20100929113757.GA23755@core.hellgate.ch> Date: Wed, 29 Sep 2010 13:37:57 +0200 From: Roger Luethi <rl@...lgate.ch> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: Patrick McHardy <kaber@...sh.net> Subject: VLAN packets silently dropped in promiscuous mode I noticed packets for unknown VLANs getting silently dropped even in promiscuous mode (this is true only for the hardware accelerated path). netif_nit_deliver was introduced specifically to prevent that, but the function gets called only _after_ packets from unknown VLANs have been dropped. Presumably this has been the case since commit e1c096e251e52773afeffbbcb74d0a072be47ea3 Author: Herbert Xu <herbert@...dor.apana.org.au> Date: Tue Jan 6 10:50:09 2009 -0800 vlan: Add GRO interfaces I didn't find any indication that the change in behavior is intentional. Is it?
