I'm interested in using TPROXY with IPv6, for transparent HTTP proxying and TRT. Before I start hacking:
Is anyone already working on v6 support?
I don't think so. (At least I don't know of anyone working on it.)
Is there any fundamental reason why it isn't possible?
No, I don't know of any issues. (Although I must admit that I'm not an IPv6 expert.) One of the motivations we had when we changed how we route proxied traffic as local (using policy routing instead of changing the IPv4 routing code) was to make it much easier to port it to IPv6.
Should I branch from Linus's tree, or is there more up to date TPROXY code I should use?
Just use Linus's tree, as far as I know all of Balazs' patches were merged. Ah, and good luck. ;) -- KOVACS Krisztian
