Patrick McHardy 8ad227ff89 net: vlan: add 802.1ad support
Add support for 802.1ad VLAN devices. This mainly consists of checking for
ETH_P_8021AD in addition to ETH_P_8021Q in a couple of places and check
offloading capabilities based on the used protocol.

Configuration is done using "ip link":

# ip link add link eth0 eth0.1000 \
	type vlan proto 802.1ad id 1000
# ip link add link eth0.1000 eth0.1000.1000 \
	type vlan proto 802.1q id 1000

52:54:00:12:34:56 > 92:b1:54:28:e4:8c, ethertype 802.1Q (0x8100), length 106: vlan 1000, p 0, ethertype 802.1Q, vlan 1000, p 0, ethertype IPv4, (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto ICMP (1), length 84)
    20.1.0.2 > 20.1.0.1: ICMP echo request, id 3003, seq 8, length 64
92:b1:54:28:e4:8c > 52:54:00:12:34:56, ethertype 802.1Q-QinQ (0x88a8), length 106: vlan 1000, p 0, ethertype 802.1Q, vlan 1000, p 0, ethertype IPv4, (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 47944, offset 0, flags [none], proto ICMP (1), length 84)
    20.1.0.1 > 20.1.0.2: ICMP echo reply, id 3003, seq 8, length 64

tristate "802.1Q/802.1ad VLAN Support"
---help---
Select this and you will be able to create 802.1Q VLAN interfaces
on your ethernet interfaces. 802.1Q VLAN supports almost
everything a regular ethernet interface does, including
firewalling, bridging, and of course IP traffic. You will need
the 'vconfig' tool from the VLAN project in order to effectively
use VLANs. See the VLAN web page for more information:
<http://www.candelatech.com/~greear/vlan.html>
To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called 8021q.
If unsure, say N.
config VLAN_8021Q_GVRP
bool "GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol) support"
depends on VLAN_8021Q
select GARP
help
Select this to enable GVRP end-system support. GVRP is used for
automatic propagation of registered VLANs to switches.
If unsure, say N.
config VLAN_8021Q_MVRP
bool "MVRP (Multiple VLAN Registration Protocol) support"
depends on VLAN_8021Q
select MRP
help
Select this to enable MVRP end-system support. MVRP is used for
automatic propagation of registered VLANs to switches; it
supersedes GVRP and is not backwards-compatible.
If unsure, say N.
