Linux kernel source tree
a398b9ea0c
There was a regression introduced by the blamed commit, where pinging to
a VLAN-unaware bridge would fail with the repeated message "Couldn't
decode source port" coming from the tagging protocol driver.
When receiving packets with a bridge_vid as determined by
dsa_tag_8021q_bridge_join(), dsa_8021q_rcv() will decode:
- source_port = 0 (which isn't really valid, more like "don't know")
- switch_id = 0 (which isn't really valid, more like "don't know")
- vbid = value in range 1-7
Since the blamed patch has reversed the order of the checks, we are now
going to believe that source_port != -1 and switch_id != -1, so they're
valid, but they aren't.
The minimal solution to the problem is to only populate source_port and
switch_id with what dsa_8021q_rcv() came up with, if the vbid is zero,
i.e. the source port information is trustworthy.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
