Description Nenad Opsenica 2009-04-29 11:59:44 UTC
Description of problem:
It is not possible to make clone of tagged VLAN interface to be used as mac-based vlan interfave.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
FC10 rebuild kernel, 2.6.27.21-170.2.56

How reproducible:
Easy.

Steps to Reproduce:
Use any 802.1q tagged vlan interface, e.g. eth2.700 and clone it:

  ip link add link eth2.700 address 00:04:75:cb:38:09 macvlan0 type macvlan
  ip link set dev macvlan0 up
  ip addr add 10.195.1.1/24 dev macvlan0

So far, so good. Now try to ping anything via macvlan0:

  ping 10.195.1.2

  
Actual results:
For every attempted packet tx kernel writes to console:

Line 256:
        if (WARN_ON(skb_headroom(skb) < dev->hard_header_len))


Please try kernel 2.6.29.2-52 from the updates-testing repository.

Comment 2 Bug Zapper 2009-11-18 10:00:50 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 10.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '10'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here: 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

Comment 3 Bug Zapper 2009-12-18 09:22:44 UTC
Fedora 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Comment 4 Nenad Opsenica 2010-05-07 15:31:14 UTC
As of kernel 2.6.30.10-105.2.23 (fc11), this bug is fixed.
