Chengen Du c77064e76c af_packet: Handle outgoing VLAN packets without hardware offloading
commit 79eecf631c14e7f4057186570ac20e2cfac3802e upstream.

The issue initially stems from libpcap. The ethertype will be overwritten
as the VLAN TPID if the network interface lacks hardware VLAN offloading.
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.

README

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.
