This is reduced bug report for a bug similar to:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1213887

What we have done is to make a simple network and basic installation af
14.04 daily build from 2014-03-03.

The error is also in  12.04 and later kernels.

If we use the first network card a a bridge:
/etc/network/interfaces:
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto p5p1
iface p5p1 inet manual

auto vlan280
iface vlan280 inet static
      address 10.230.80.26
      netmask 255.255.255.0
      gateway 10.230.80.1
      dns-search 10.230.80.11 10.230.80.12
      bridge_ports p5p1
      bridge_maxwait 0
      bridge_fd 0
      bridge stp_off


auto p5p2
iface p5p2 inet static
      mtu 9000
      address 10.230.92.26
      network 10.230.92.0
      netmask 255.255.255.0
      post-up ifconfig p5p2 txqueuelen 10000


You begin to lose pings and the connection to 10.230.80.26 becomes very unstable. The connection to 10.230.92.26 i running without problems all the time.

We get some messages in syslog vlan280: received packet on p5p1 with own
address as source address


If we switch the bridge to the second networkcard the bridge works:
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto p5p2
iface p5p2 inet manual

auto vlan280
iface vlan280 inet static
      address 10.230.80.26
      netmask 255.255.255.0
      gateway 10.230.80.1
      dns-search 10.230.80.11 10.230.80.12
      bridge_ports p5p2
      bridge_maxwait 0
      bridge_fd 0
      bridge stp_off


auto p5p1
iface p5p1 inet static
      mtu 9000
      address 10.230.92.26
      network 10.230.92.0
      netmask 255.255.255.0
      post-up ifconfig p5p1 txqueuelen 10000

A normal network setup does not give any problems at all on p5p1
