[PATCH] netdev: pktgen xmit packet through vlan interface

From: Zhouyi Zhou
Date: Fri May 02 2014 - 03:19:07 EST


As http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg165015.html
pktgen generates shared packet through vlan interface will cause
oops because of duplicate entering tc queue.

Try to solve this problem by means of packet clone instead of sharing.
