Subject: Re: kern/179392: [pf] [ip6] Incorrect TCP checksums in rdr return
 packets
Date: Wed, 15 Jan 2014 22:36:53 +0100

 Hello FreeBSD team, hello Paul,
 
 I would like to confirm this. The original PR says it all. I have also
 reproduced it on FreeBSD 9.2R.
 
 FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE-p2 #3 r258725 on amd64
 
 The checksum is not updated, tcpdump says it clearly. The packet is
 being quietly dropped and never arrives at the service listening socket.
 
 Here the comparison for two rules for an intercepting HTTP proxy:
 
 # works (IPv4)
 rdr on $if_int inet proto tcp \
        from any to !$net_int port www -> 127.0.0.1 port 8118 
 
 # incorrect checksum (IPv6)
 rdr on $if_int inet6 proto tcp \
        from any to !$net_int port www -> ::1 port 8118
 
 
 In my opinion, this is quite important. It costed me a day to find out
 what is going on and I have come to the same conclusion as Paul
 (independently).
 
 
 Yours
 Martin Sugioarto
