Hi all, We're seeing an issue where IEC 61850 (GOOSE) packets are dropped unexpectedly by the receiver. This is on a Bay Trail based embedded platform running Linux 3.10.31-ltsi (version 5.0.3-k of the igb module).
We've tracked the issue down to the VLAN filtering on the NIC. Since filtering is enabled by default but we don't configure any VLANs, the GOOSE packets, which have a TPID of 0x8100 and a TCI of 0x8000 (VLAN ID 0), are dropped. This seems like the same issue that was reported in this thread: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.e1000.devel/8590 and the patch in that thread fixes the problem. That post mentions that "something similar is already done on newer kernels via changes that were made to support 802.1p and DCB," but that doesn't seem to be the case. What's the current status of this issue? Is this a fix that could be pulled into the current version of the driver, or is there another way we're supposed to be handling this scenario?
