[Bridge] [PATCH 1/4] bridge: don't change packet type
The change to forward STP bpdu's (for usermode STP) through normal path,
changed the packet type in the process. Since link local stuff is multicast, it
should stay pkt_type = PACKET_MULTICAST. The code was probably copy/pasted
incorrectly from the bridge pseudo-device receive path.

Here are some patches for bridge code in 2.6.22. The user mode RSTP from Aji is working. Anyone who wants to test it can get it from: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shemminger/rstp.git Thanks --
Pause frames should never make it out of the network device into
the stack. But if a device was misconfigured, it might happen.
So drop pause frames in bridge.

[Bridge] [PATCH 3/4] bridge: if no STP then forward all BPDUs
If a bridge is not running STP, then it has no way to detect a cycle
in the network. But if it is not running STP and some other machine
or device is running STP, then if STP BPDU's get forwarded to it can
detect the cycle.
This is how the old 2.4 and early 2.6 code worked.
