[PATCH v3] af_packet: Handle outgoing VLAN packets without hardware offloading

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The issue initially stems from libpcap [1]. In the outbound packet path,
if hardware VLAN offloading is unavailable, the VLAN tag is inserted into
the payload but then cleared from the sk_buff struct. Consequently, this
can lead to a false negative when checking for the presence of a VLAN tag,
causing the packet sniffing outcome to lack VLAN tag information (i.e.,
TCI-TPID). As a result, the packet capturing tool may be unable to parse
packets as expected.

The TCI-TPID is missing because the prb_fill_vlan_info() function does not
modify the tp_vlan_tci/tp_vlan_tpid values, as the information is in the
payload and not in the sk_buff struct. The skb_vlan_tag_present() function
only checks vlan_all in the sk_buff struct. In cooked mode, the L2 header
is stripped, preventing the packet capturing tool from determining the
correct TCI-TPID value. Additionally, the protocol in SLL is incorrect,
which means the packet capturing tool cannot parse the L3 header correctly.
