Subject: bridge: fix C-VLAN preservation in 802.1ad vlan_tunnel egress
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3128df6be147768fe536986fbb85db1d37806a9f;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

bridge: fix C-VLAN preservation in 802.1ad vlan_tunnel egress

When using an 802.1ad bridge with vlan_tunnel, the C-VLAN tag is
incorrectly stripped from frames during egress processing.

br_handle_egress_vlan_tunnel() uses skb_vlan_pop() to remove the S-VLAN
from hwaccel before VXLAN encapsulation. However, skb_vlan_pop() also
moves any "next" VLAN from the payload into hwaccel:

    /* move next vlan tag to hw accel tag */
    __skb_vlan_pop(skb, &vlan_tci);
    __vlan_hwaccel_put_tag(skb, vlan_proto, vlan_tci);

For QinQ frames where the C-VLAN sits in the payload, this moves it to
hwaccel where it gets lost during VXLAN encapsulation.

Fix by calling __vlan_hwaccel_clear_tag() directly, which clears only
the hwaccel S-VLAN and leaves the payload untouched.

This path is only taken when vlan_tunnel is enabled and tunnel_info
is configured, so 802.1Q bridges are unaffected.

Tested with 802.1ad bridge + VXLAN vlan_tunnel, verified C-VLAN
preserved in VXLAN payload via tcpdump.
