Vladimir Oltean says: ==================== dsa: Fix mangled link-local MAC DAs with SJA1105 DSA The SJA1105 hardware tagging protocol is weird and will put DSA information (source port, switch ID) in the MAC DA of the packets sent to the CPU, and then send some additional (meta) packets which contain the original bytes from the previous packet's MAC DA. The tagging protocol driver contains logic to handle this, but the meta frames are optional functionality, and there are configurations when they aren't received (no PTP RX timestamping). Thus, the MAC DA from packets sent to the stack is not correct in all cases. Also, during testing it was found that the MAC DA patching procedure was incorrect. The investigation comes as a result of this discussion with Paolo: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/f494387c8d55d9b1d5a3e88beedeeb448f2e6cc3.camel@redhat.com/ ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
