[PATCH v2 07/17] net/dpaa2: fix spurious VLAN insertion on non-VLAN packets

Maxime Leroy maxime at leroys.fr
Thu Feb 26 15:33:31 CET 2026


The VLAN insert check in dpaa2_dev_tx() tested the per-packet flag
OR the port-level txmode offload:

  if (ol_flags & RTE_MBUF_F_TX_VLAN ||
      txmode.offloads & RTE_ETH_TX_OFFLOAD_VLAN_INSERT)

When VLAN_INSERT is enabled in txmode, this causes rte_vlan_insert()
to be called on every packet regardless of the per-packet flag, inserting
a VLAN header with whatever stale value is in vlan_tci (typically 0).

The port-level offload only advertises the capability. The actual trigger
must be the per-packet RTE_MBUF_F_TX_VLAN flag, as done by every other
DPDK driver (Intel, mlx5, virtio, vhost, af_packet, etc.).
