I don't like this because it adds yet another test in fastpath, and for a use case that has apparently never worked before. > We noticed issues when using tproxy with net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables > enabled. In such case, ip_rcv() basically undo tproxy's job. The following > patch proposes a fix. I question wheter its a good idea to mix tproxy with bridges. Tproxy relies on policy routing, but a bridge doesn't route :-) I guess you use bridge snat mac mangling to force local delivery of packets that are otherwise bridged? If yes, can you use ebtables brouting instead? This would bypass the bridge (so no iptables invocation from bridge prerouting anymore). We will try to get rid of nf-call-iptables eventually. There might be (more complicated) ways to avoid this problem without adding code in normal network path, but lets check other options first. -- 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
