Hi, Alex.
I also wanted to decapsulate 4in6 packets without configuring the endpoints. The ip6_tunnel module already has the mode parameter (6in6, 4in6, any).
The problem is the fallback device "ip6tnl0" has preconfigured mode 6in6 that you can not change. All other tunnel devices work only with specified endpoints.
I've found two ways for fixing this:
The first is to change mode of the ip6tnl0 to 'any' at compile-time. Very simple, but may cause compatibility issues.
The idea behing the second is to allow changing mode of the ip6tnl0 device as for any other tunnel device
Hereby I'm requesting for comments on these changes. If somebody decides to merge one of these into upstream kernel tree, I will repost the patch with proper formalities.
