No, ip6_route_me_harder() only attaches a new route to the packet, the packets contents are not changed. > From my 1st mail: > | # ip6tables -t mangle -A OUTPUT -o eth0 -j MARK --set-mark 1 > | # /etc/init.d/radvd start > | -> eth0: <no traffic> > | -> eth1: fe80::2a0:c9ff:fee6:90ce > ff02::1: prefix 2001:6f8:90c:10::/64 > | -> eth1: fe80::2d0:b7ff:fe06:6b36 > ff02::1: prefix 2001:6f8:90c:12::/64 > > fe80::2d0:b7ff:fe06:6b36 is the link-local address of eth0 set by radvd > in IPV6_PKTINFO as well.

No, what is happening is that radvd sends the packet with a specified ifindex using IPV6_PKTINFO. The mangle table notices that the mark changes and calls ip6_route_me_harder(), which performs a new route lookup without taking the specified oif into account. It therefore chooses the first of your two routes and sends the packet out eth1. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
