Sorry for late reply. Initially, when issuing "ip link set up dev swp0",
ndo_vlan_rx_add_vid was called to add the interface in the VLAN 0.

2 things happen here:

  * this is inconsistent with the "bridge vlan" output which doesn't seem to
    know about a VID 0;
  * VID 0 seems special for this switch: if an ingressing frame has VID 0, the
    tagged port will override the VID bits with the port default VID at egress.

Thanks,
