Subject: Re: Regression in 3.9 caused by "bridge: respect RFC2863 operational state"

 Sorry to pick up this thread again,  it looks this issue still existed  in the newer 4.3 kernel. (The EAP frames can not be received by wireless interface due to the bridge interface,
http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=136743495526905&w=2)

 Wonder is anyone know some update for this issue?  Currently the only workaround is make the 4-address  AP and STA associated in security mode firstly and then create the bridge, the renew key configuration also need be disable at the hostapd side to  avoid renew the key at bridge status.

Thanks
Yanbo

What about using AF_PACKET bound to underlying wireless device 
and the packet type. You can even use BPF to filter.
As far as I know, AF_PACKET only works when not binding it to the 
packet type (otherwise it get stolen by the rx handler).
You can do AF_PACKET and it gets handle before rx_handler.
If I don't bind it to a protocol, it ends up in ptype_all, if I do, 
it ends up in &ptype_base. ptype_all is processed before the 
rx_handler, ptype_base is processed after the rx handler.
Hooking into ptype_all wastes tons of CPU cycles, hooking into 
ptype_base does not solve the problem.
