[PATCH 2.4.21-pre4] Propagate netfilter MARK value when tunneling
This patch enables the user to propagate netfilter MARK values from tunneled packets to the tunnel packets. The primary use for this is QoS: it enables you to MARK a packet before it enters a tunnel and then later pick up the packet when it''s about to leave the physical interface. jamal <hadi@cyberus.ca> suggested to also propagate other skb specifics like the tcindex and priority. I haven''t included these in the current patch for the very simple reason that I don''t understand what they mean ;-) The patch is currently limited to GRE, IPIP and SIT. Patch is attached to this mail, but also can be downloaded from http://dexter.hensema.net/~erik/patches/netfilter-propagate-mark-2.4.21-pre4.diff -- Erik Hensema (erik@hensema.net)
