Toshiaki Makita says: ==================== Fix vlan untag and insertion for bridge and vlan with reorder_hdr off As Brandon Carpenter reported[1], sending non-vlan-offloaded packets from bridge devices ends up with corrupted packets. He narrowed down this problem and found that the root cause is in skb_reorder_vlan_header(). While I was working on fixing this problem, I found that the function does not work properly for double tagged packets with reorder_hdr off as well. Patch 1 fixes these 2 problems in skb_reorder_vlan_header(). And it turned out that fixing skb_reorder_vlan_header() is not sufficient to receive double tagged packets with reorder_hdr off while I was testing the fix. Vlan tags got out of order when vlan devices with reorder_hdr disabled were stacked. Patch 2 fixes this problem.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
