Subject: 802.1Q VLAN random tag injected when vlan configured on forcedeth
interface
Hi guys,
I've faced with strange behaviour of 8021q driver: when enabling vlan subinterface on eth interface I'm getting ~50% packetloss due to packets are marked with incorrect tags (and eventually dropped by kernel since no vlans configured for such IDs).
Scenario:
[ 0.476950] cpufreq-nforce2: No nForce2 chipset.
[ 1.519133] forcedeth: Reverse Engineered nForce ethernet driver. Version 0.64.
[ 1.519991] forcedeth 0000:00:0a.0: PCI INT A -> Link[LMAC] -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 22
[ 1.520037] forcedeth 0000:00:0a.0: setting latency timer to 64
[ 1.586526] forcedeth 0000:00:0a.0: ifname eth0, PHY OUI 0x732 @ 3, addr 00:26:18:40:21:61
[ 1.586542] forcedeth 0000:00:0a.0: highdma csum pwrctl gbit lnktim msi desc-v3
modprobe 8021q
- network still works properly, packets are comming not marked at all.
ip li add link eth0 name vl6 type vlan id 6
- from this moment massive packetdrop starting to happen, almost half of the *incoming* packets are shown in tcpdump as
14:15:52.859296 00:13:f7:1e:fe:e4 > 00:26:18:40:21:61, ethertype 802.1Q (0x8100), length 102: vlan 64, p 3, ethertype IPv4, [|ip]
14:15:56.869572 00:13:f7:1e:fe:e4 > 00:26:18:40:21:61, ethertype 802.1Q (0x8100), length 102: vlan 2112, p 7, ethertype IPv4, [|ip]
mostly only these two tags appears (64 & 2112). Moreover this happens as on native vlan level (pure ethernet) so on tagged subinterface (as if qinq double tagging) for properly tagged with ID 6 incomming packets.
I've tried disabling all offloads:
Offload parameters for eth0:
rx-checksumming: off
tx-checksumming: off
scatter-gather: off
tcp-segmentation-offload: off
udp-fragmentation-offload: off
generic-segmentation-offload: off
generic-receive-offload: off
large-receive-offload: off
rx-vlan-offload: off
tx-vlan-offload: off
ntuple-filters: off
receive-hashing: off
- doesn't have any effect.
Once executing
ip li del vl6 type vlan
misterious tags disappear and everything works smoothly. Don't know who injects that garbage into frames - 8021q or forcedeth driver :(
Any ideas or suggestions to narrow the problem down?
Additional data.
Link level data dump example for broken frame:
12:35:32.175523 00:13:f7:1e:fe:e4 > 00:26:18:40:21:61, ethertype 802.1Q (0x8100), length 102: vlan 2112, p 2, ethertype IPv4, [|ip]
0x0000: 0026 1840 2161 0013 f71e fee4 8100 4840
0x0010: 0800 4500 0054 7a12 0000 4001 eb0f
0x0C-0D - TPID: ethertype 802.1Q (0x8100)
0x0E-0F - TCI (0100100001000000) PCP 010, CFI 0, VID 100001000000/0x840/2112
0x10-11 - ethertype IPv4
normal ping reply follows, which appears untagged in 50% cases with vlan configured and 100% cases without.
Interface is plugged into openwrt box into non-switched (wan) gigabit port with vid 6 subinterface configured.

Ruslan
