We can use icmpv6_send() just in the case that the packet was already transmitted by a tunnel device, otherwise we get the bug back that I mentioned in my other mail. Not sure if we have something to know that the packet traversed a tunnel device. That's what I asked in the thread 'Looking for a lost patch'. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-crypto" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
