From 0f75b09c798ed00c30d7d5551b896be883bc2aeb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Sutter Date: Fri, 2 Aug 2013 11:37:39 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] af_packet: when sending ethernet frames, parse header for skb->protocol This may be necessary when the SKB is passed to other layers on the go, which check the protocol field on their own. An example is a VLAN packet sent out using AF_PACKET on a bridge interface. The bridging code checks the SKB size, accounting for any VLAN header only if the protocol field is set accordingly. Note that eth_type_trans() sets skb->dev to the passed argument, so this can be skipped in packet_snd() for ethernet frames, as well. Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter Signed-off-by: David S.
