netfilter: bridge: detect NAT66 correctly and change MAC address
IPv4 iptables allows to REDIRECT/DNAT/SNAT any traffic over a bridge. e.g. REDIRECT $ sysctl -w net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables=1 $ iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 8080 \ -j REDIRECT --to-ports 81 This does not work with ip6tables on a bridge in NAT66 scenario because the REDIRECT/DNAT/SNAT is not correctly detected. The bridge pre-routing (finish) netfilter hook has to check for a possible redirect and then fix the destination mac address. This allows to use the ip6tables rules for local REDIRECT/DNAT/SNAT REDIRECT similar to the IPv4 iptables version. e.g. REDIRECT $ sysctl -w net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables=1 $ ip6tables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 8080 \ -j REDIRECT --to-ports 81 This patch makes it possible to use IPv6 NAT66 on a bridge. It was tested on a bridge with two interfaces using SNAT/DNAT NAT66 rules.
