Hello! My goal is to setup an ingress traffic shaping on my PPPOE DSL line with ifb. My old imq stuff used iptables marks (like 'iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -p tcp --sport 22 -m length --length :500 -j MARK --set-mark 31') to classify the traffic and since i am lazy, i tried to to reuse them with ifb. But no luck: iptables marks the packets well, but tc doesn't see the marks on ifb0. May be my problem is somewhere between ppp0 and ifb0, so for a basic test, I tried this: tc qdisc add dev ppp0 ingress modprobe ifb ip link set up dev ifb0 tc filter add dev ppp0 parent ffff: protocol ip prio 10 u32 \ match u32 0 0 flowid 1:1 \ action mirred egress redirect dev ifb0 and run: root@router:/# tcpdump -i ifb0 -n tcpdump: WARNING: ifb0: no IPv4 address assigned tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode listening on ifb0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes 12:38:29.584451 PPPoE [ses 0x7dc] IP 217.10.79.2.10000 > 84.189.95.184.1024: UDP, length 84 12:38:29.585924 PPPoE [ses 0x7dc] IP 84.189.5.17 > 84.189.95.184: GREv1, call 24388, seq 1868, ack 3210, length 205: compressed PPP data 12:38:29.600506 PPPoE [ses 0x7dc] IP truncated-ip - 256 bytes missing! 24.163.113.160.34247 > 84.189.95.184.9025: UDP, length 359 [...] Looks like the packetes are still pppoe en-capsuled. Is this the correct behavior? This only occurs on ppp0, on other devices (like eth0) my iptables marks are matched by tc. What can I do to get my iptables marks working on ppp0 again? my system is a debian etch with kernel from backports, newer iptables and newer iproute2: root@router:~# uname -a Linux router 2.6.21-2-k7 #1 SMP Fri Jul 13 16:18:53 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux root@router:~# iptables -V iptables v1.3.8 root@router:~# tc -V tc utility, iproute2-ss070710 Thanks in advance.
