core/dev: set pkt_type after eth_type_trans() in dev_forward_skb()
The dev_forward_skb() assignment of pkt_type should be done after the call to eth_type_trans(). ip-encapsulated packets can be handled by localhost. But skb->pkt_type can be PACKET_OTHERHOST when packet comes via veth into ip tunnel device. In that case, the packet is dropped by ip_rcv(). Although this example uses gretap. l2tp-eth also has same issue. For l2tp-eth case, add dummy device for ip address and ip l2tp command. netns A | root netns | netns B veth<->veth=bridge=gretap <-loop back-> gretap=bridge=veth<->veth arp packet -> pkt_type BROADCAST------------>ip_rcv()------------------------> <- arp reply pkt_type ip_rcv()<-----------------OTHERHOST drop sample operations ip link add tapa type gretap remote 172.17.107.4 local 172.17.107.3 ip link add tapb type gretap remote 172.17.107.3 local 172.17.107.4 ip link set tapa up ip link set tapb up ip address add 172.17.107.3 dev tapa ip address add 172.17.107.4 dev tapb ip route get 172.17.107.3 > local 172.17.107.3 dev lo src 172.17.107.3 > cache <local> ip route get 172.17.107.4 > local 172.17.107.4 dev lo src 172.17.107.4 > cache <local> ip link add vetha type veth peer name vetha-peer ip link add vethb type veth peer name vethb-peer brctl addbr bra brctl addbr brb brctl addif bra tapa brctl addif bra vetha-peer brctl addif brb tapb brctl addif brb vethb-peer brctl show > bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces > bra 8000.6ea21e758ff1 no tapa > vetha-peer > brb 8000.420020eb92d5 no tapb > vethb-peer ip link set vetha-peer up ip link set vethb-peer up ip link set bra up ip link set brb up ip netns add a ip netns add b ip link set vetha netns a ip link set vethb netns b ip netns exec a ip address add 10.0.0.3/24 dev vetha ip netns exec b ip address add 10.0.0.4/24 dev vethb ip netns exec a ip link set vetha up ip netns exec b ip link set vethb up ip netns exec a arping -I vetha 10.0.0.4 ARPING 10.0.0.4 from 10.0.0.3 vetha ^CSent 2 probes (2 broadcast(s)) Received 0 response(s) Cc: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Cc: "Michael S.
