Well, I've bumped the version number to 1.0.0 in anticipation of
sending the patch off to linux-kernel for discussion and possible
inclusion in kernel some day.
http://scry.wanfear.com/~greear/vlan.html
The fixes are fairly minor, but I did finally get MAC-settability to
work like it should. When you set the MAC address, it now makes
the underlying device into PROMISC mode, so that the VLAN can
continue to receive packets.
Hashed devices are disabled by default now, because some ppl
have trouble with the 'lo' device (and I can't reproduce the
problem, or figure out what the real problem is...)
See net/core/dev.c to turn it back on and send me bug reports/patches!!
Please try this out as soon as you can, and send me feedback..I plan
on submitting the patch to LK next weekend if all goes well.
Thanks,
Ben
