From: Taehee Yoo <ap420073@xxxxxxxxx> commit 3ed0a1d563903bdb4b4c36c58c4d9c1bcb23a6e6 upstream. The supervision frame is L2 frame. When supervision frame is created, hsr module doesn't set network header. If tap routine is enabled, dev_queue_xmit_nit() is called and it checks network_header. If network_header pointer wasn't set(or invalid), it resets network_header and warns. In order to avoid unnecessary warning message, resetting network_header is needed. Test commands: ip netns add nst ip link add veth0 type veth peer name veth1 ip link add veth2 type veth peer name veth3 ip link set veth1 netns nst ip link set veth3 netns nst ip link set veth0 up ip link set veth2 up ip link add hsr0 type hsr slave1 veth0 slave2 veth2 ip a a 192.168.100.1/24 dev hsr0 ip link set hsr0 up ip netns exec nst ip link set veth1 up ip netns exec nst ip link set veth3 up ip netns exec nst ip link add hsr1 type hsr slave1 veth1 slave2 veth3 ip netns exec nst ip a a 192.168.100.2/24 dev hsr1 ip netns exec nst ip link set hsr1 up tcpdump -nei veth0 Splat looks like: [ 175.852292][ C3] protocol 88fb is buggy, dev veth0 Fixes: f421436a591d ("net/hsr: Add support for the High-availability Seamless Redundancy protocol (HSRv0)") Signed-off-by: Taehee Yoo <ap420073@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
