When the vlan filtering is enabled on the bridge, but
the filter is not configured on the bridge device itself,
running tcpdump on the bridge device will result in a
an Ooops with NULL pointer dereference.  The reason
is that br_pass_frame_up() will bypass the vlan
check because promisc flag is set.  It will then try
to get the table pointer and process the packet based
on the table.  Since the table pointer is NULL, we oops.
Catch this special condition in br_handle_vlan().

Thanks, will fix in v2.  For now, will now wait for a few more reviews.

Currently this function is calling __vlan_put_tag() if port_idx==0.
You are going to bypass it only if br is promisc mode.

However it doesn't seem to lead any problem because
__netif_receive_skb_core() can handle hw accel vlan tag.

Instead, I doubt if __vlan_put_tag() is necessary in br_handle_vlan()...

Thanks,
Toshiaki Makita

I'll need to re-test, but I remember having had to add that code to make
it work on the bridge...

Looking at it again, I agree that special handling for forwarding to the
bridge doesn't seem to be needed.

Then, I'm OK with that "goto" statement :)

One more comment:
How about using BUG_ON() instead of "if-else BUG()"?
I think it could make the code slightly more efficient and simple.

Thanks,
