From 366f0a0f98370d435de64978d623e6abf2630b01 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Guenter Roeck Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2015 18:36:30 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Disable Message Port bit for CPU port Datasheet says that the Message Port bit should not be set for the CPU port. Having it set causes DSA tagged packets to be sent to the CPU port roughly every 30 seconds. Those packets are the same as real packets forwarded between switch ports if the switch is configured for switching between multiple ports. The packets are then bridged by the software bridge, resulting in duplicated packets on the network.
