if you setup a vlan devices with parent one of emX or reX (this what I
have at the moment) which has hardware vlan tagging just try to run
tcpdump (without -p) and the vlans will die :). That doesn't happen with
parent devices not supporting hwtagging. And this totally excludes
possibility to run a bridge over vlans with parent device which support
hwtaggs. And something else was observed with re driver - it is
impossible to disable hwtaggs by -vlanhwtag neither you can disable vlan
mtu :).


I recently fixed this bug in if_em in HEAD, and will be merging that
back to RELENG_5 shortly. We plan to also merge the change to
RELENG_5_3 as an errata patch fix. It does not surprise me that if_re
has a similar bug; I'll look at abstracting the solution in the next
few days.



I've now merged the fix to RELENG_5 from HEAD:

 Checking in if_em.c;
 /home/ncvs/src/sys/dev/em/if_em.c,v  <--  if_em.c
 new revision: 1.44.2.4; previous revision: 1.44.2.3
 done
 Checking in if_em.h;
 /home/ncvs/src/sys/dev/em/if_em.h,v  <--  if_em.h
 new revision: 1.25.2.2; previous revision: 1.25.2.1
 done

I'll take a look at if_re shortly.

My if_em.c is 1.44.2.4 and if_em.h is 1.25.2.2 and the same happens again... I ran ping throu vlan device on one console and then start tcpdump on another console and the ping stops.
