For tunneled ipv6in4 packets, the LOG target (xt_LOG.c) adjusts the start of the mac field to start at the ethernet header instead of the ipv4 header for the tunnel. This patch conforms what is passed by the NFLOG target through nfnetlink to what the LOG target does. Code borrowed from xt_LOG.c. Here are before and after log lines. The kernel: lines are with the LOG target, the ulogd lines are with NFLOG, ulogd and its SYSLOG plugin: Log lines for the same packet, before patch: Dec 3 09:07:22 gateway kernel: [ 69.268396] INVALID IN=he-ipv6 OUT=eth1 MAC=00:50:8d:bf:02:01:68:ef:bd:f0:7d:d9:08:00:45:00:00:5c:00:00:40:00:fa:29: 64:c2:42:dc:12:2a:18:31:ae:7f TUNNEL=66.220.18.42->w.x.y.z SRC= ...
