[ovs-dev] [uswitch 2/4] netdev-linux: Fix netdev_send() to tap device.

2011-04-08 Thread Ben Pfaff
Commit 76c308b50d3 "netdev-linux: Support 'send' for netdevs opened with NETDEV_ETH_TYPE_NONE" broke sending packets to tap devices. Sending a packet to a tap device with an AF_PACKET socket causes that packet to be looped back to be received on the tap device again, which obviously isn't useful.
