set/unset the variable "stripping_vlan_tag" to reproduce the issue

I am using raw ethernet socket and sending/receiving network traffic.

problem I am seeing is if read socket is opened before starting sending the
vlan traffic, read socket is able to capture packets along with vlan tag. but
if I open the read socket before starting sending the packets, vlan tag is
being stripped and only those four bytes are missing from the packet. Rest of
the packet is intact.

Please refer to the small code snippet which consistently produces the bug.

set/unset the variable "stripping_vlan_tag" to reproduce the issue.

is this a bug in the kernel or any problem with my coding ?

I am working on a project where I will be opening all the required sockets at
once and will be using as and when required. In that case, I am not able to
capture vlan tags which is blocking me. However, tcpdump is capture along with
vlan tag.

please be noted that, both the cards are in same system and are connected just
back to back using a cat5 cable. eth0 is built-in card and eth1 is usb based
external network card.

Is there a way to get rid of this issue ?

Best Regards,
Lokesh.
