Netfilter hook doesn't see mDNS packets

Hello,

I am working on a kernel module in a Router that hooks into
NF_INET_PRE_ROUTING to capture mDNS packets. Unfortunately, it doesn't
see any packet. Interestingly, when tcpdump is running in promiscuous
mode, the kernel module sees mDNS packets.  One would think that these
multicast packets will be visible at least to PRE_ROUTING hook, then
the routing code may either drop it or send it to other hooks. Any
reason netfilter doesn't see these multicast packets? I would
appreciate any ideas to resolve this issue.

Thanks.
