Since tg3 doesn't provide ETIF_F_HW_VLAN_STAG_TX, we follow the non-accelerated path. Currently the driver doesn't appear to be offer ability to disable vlan acceleration. However, if any software devices on top of the card do not support it for some reason, then the issue would be seen as well. -vlad -- 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
