net: bridge: fix per-port af_packet sockets
When the commit below was introduced it changed two visible things: - the skb was no longer passed through the protocol handlers with the original device - the skb was passed up the stack with skb->dev = bridge The first change broke af_packet sockets on bridge ports. For example we use them for hostapd which listens for ETH_P_PAE packets on the ports. We discussed two possible fixes: - create a clone and pass it through NF_HOOK(), act on the original skb based on the result - somehow signal to the caller from the okfn() that it was called, meaning the skb is ok to be passed, which this patch is trying to implement via returning 1 from the bridge link-local okfn() Note that we rely on the fact that NF_QUEUE/STOLEN would return 0 and drop/error would return < 0 thus the okfn() is called only when the return was 1, so we signal to the caller that it was called by preserving the return value from nf_hook(). Fixes: 8626c56c8279 ("bridge: fix potential use-after-free when hook returns QUEUE or STOLEN verdict") Signed-off-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
