[RFC PATCH net-next] net: dsa: vsc73xx: remove ds->untag_bridge_pvid request
Posted by Vladimir Oltean 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Similar to the situation described for sja1105 in commit 1f9fc48fd302
("net: dsa: sja1105: fix reception from VLAN-unaware bridges") from the
'net' tree, the vsc73xx driver uses tag_8021q.

The ds->untag_bridge_pvid option strips VLANs from packets received on
VLAN-unaware bridge ports. But those VLANs should already be stripped by
tag_vsc73xx_8021q.c as part of vsc73xx_rcv(). It is even plausible that
the same bug that existed for sja1105 also exists for vsc73xx:
dsa_software_untag_vlan_unaware_bridge() tries to untag a VLAN that
doesn't exist, corrupting the packet.

Only compile tested, as I don't have access to the hardware.

Thanks Vladimir for this patch. This fix is required for the proper
functioning of vsc73xx.

Thanks for testing, Paweł, I suspected as much. I will resend a v2 to
the 'net' tree with your test tag and a Fixes: tag. I hope I caught it
early enough that it didn't cause too much trouble.
