From: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 3b2e2904deb314cc77a2192f506f2fd44e3d10d0 ] When the commit below was introduced it changed two visible things: - the skb was no longer passed through the protocol handlers with the original device - the skb was passed up the stack with skb->dev = bridge The first change broke af_packet sockets on bridge ports. For example we use them for hostapd which listens for ETH_P_PAE packets on the ports. We discussed two possible fixes: - create a clone and pass it through NF_HOOK(), act on the original skb based on the result - somehow signal to the caller from the okfn() that it was called, meaning the skb is ok to be passed, which this patch is trying to implement via returning 1 from the bridge link-local okfn() Note that we rely on the fact that NF_QUEUE/STOLEN would return 0 and drop/error would return < 0 thus the okfn() is called only when the return was 1, so we signal to the caller that it was called by preserving the return value from nf_hook().
