[VLAN] Linux Vlans: Supported Standards/Limitations

I understand that the Linux 2.6 implementation supports the 802.1q standard. 
However, I am unable to 'see' support for the following - when I read the 
documentation & the 'man page' for the vconfig cmd:

       - PVID allocation for a port/interface
	- Dynamic vlans (GVRP) support
	- Protocol based vlan classification (802.1v (what today is (802.1q-3003 ) )

Could somebody throw some light on this?

	Thanks a lot
