Dear Antonio, No sorries please. I jus wanted to get more clear on your doubt. Did you refer to the ipt_state or ipt_conntrack files for idea? They involve number of structure and functional references. Is that what you were looking for or am I taking you in a wrong direction?

I have implemented a match, this match is called in the chains OUTPUT and INPUT. I would like to know a way of accessing an structure or calling a function or something similar in order to be able of doing a switch inside the match changing the behaviour if the match is called from OUTPUT or INPUT.
