Hi Pedro, Eric, Patrick, Commit ad1afb003939 vlan_dev: VLAN 0 should be treated as "no vlan tag" (802.1p packet) did allow receiving 802.1p frames without necessarily creating a VLAN w/ VID0 interface. After setting up a VLAN interface with VID0, the packets are properly tagged while being transmitted, but this also required the receiver to have a VLAN interface with VID0, which does not seem like it should be required thanks to the above commit. Should we have a special set of SO_PRIORITY values which will automatically insert a VLAN tag with ID0 and PCP fields (like what net/wireless/util.c::cfg80211_classify8021d does)? Thanks! -- Florian
