It's rather annoying, really.
That's weird. I've got a tg3 card and I see the tags in tcpdump unless I register a vlan device to it. I've taken a look at the source code of the tg3 driver and vlan_hwaccel_receive_skb() only gets called if a prior tg3_vlan_rx_register() has been made. _______________________________________________ Bridge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bridge
