Subject: Re: [PATCH v5] af_packet: Handle outgoing VLAN packets without
hardware offloading
Hi Willem,
Thank you for your comments on patch v4.
I have made some modifications and would like to discuss some of your
suggestions in detail.

As you mentioned, we need the outermost VLAN tag to fit the protocol
we referenced in tp_vlan_tpid.
In if_vlan.h, __vlan_get_protocol() only provides the protocol and may
affect other usage scenarios if we modify it to also provide TCI.
There is a similar function called __vlan_get_tag(), which also aims
to extract TCI from the L2 header, but it doesn't check the header
size as __vlan_get_protocol() does.
To prevent affecting other usage scenarios, I introduced a new
function to achieve our purpose.
Additionally, the starting point of skb->data differs in SOCK_RAW and
SOCK_DGRAM cases.
I accounted for this by using skb_push to ensure that skb->data starts
from the L2 header.
Would you recommend modifying __vlan_get_tag() to add the size check
logic instead?
If so, we would also need to consider how to integrate the size check
logic into both __vlan_get_protocol() and __vlan_get_tag().
