I got a tcpdump trace on the init and nego exchange for both the kernel driver and the userspace driver, and there's a difference.
(see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pppoe for background info) Both kernel and userspace start with sending a PADI. ISP sends back a PADO with the AC-name and a relay-session-id. Both kernel and userspace responds with a PADR, however the userspace sends back the relay-session-id where the kernel driver does not. The userspace continues the nego successfully. The kernel driver simply re-tries the PADR again unchanged after no response from ISP. Is there a way to get the pppoe(4) to include the relay-session-id in the PADR packet?
