>Subject: [PATCH] ixgbevf: fix vlan acceleration
>
>BZ - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1069028
>
>Description:
>Currently if we're not in netpoll the stripped VLAN information will get
>lost resulting in connectivity problems if there're VLANs configured on
>top. Fix this to match upstream and add the VLAN information to the skb
>no matter which path will get chosen.
>Also make it closer to upstream by checking for the existence of an exact
>VLAN, another reason for checking for the exact VLAN is that if the VF
>is in a hypervisor VLAN and a different VLAN gets created on top of it,
>the original (hypervisor) VLAN will stop working.
>
>Note: Currently the IN_NETPOLL flag is always set, so that path is
>always chosen, but this patch also adds exact VLAN check on the other path
>in order to be consistent.
>
>Upstream:
> The patch is RHEL-specific, it makes the driver act as in upstream.
>
>Brew -
>
>Tests:
>I have tested it locally by creating the same VLAN in the VM and in the
>host and checking for connectivity. The reporter tested it as can be seen
>here - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1069028#c26 and has also
>passed it to the client for testing.
