 I would like to have solution for this as well. At the moment I have 
 to use imq device per device and TBF because of that :(. Number of 
 imq devices is limited and many other annoying things.

I discovered the answer to this problem was hidden in a totally 
unrelated post yesterday :)  [most general filter rule]

You can specify protocol all in filters, and still use fwmarks to
identify traffic. I have been using this since yesterday and it 
appears to work perfectly, you can MARK packets with the same ID in
both iptables and ip6tables, and filter them into the same class.

 Well, almost. There seem to be rather a lot of issues if trying
 to mix protocol ip and protocol ipv6 in filters. 

I've done some more experimentation with this, and so long as commands
are entered in the right order it seems fairly happy.

The one thing you *cannot* do is mix protocol ip and protocol ipv6
filters for filtering into a class. The second filter request returns
with Invalid argument.

This is really rather inconvenient. Does anybody know why?

I wondered if I could get around this by not specifying a protocol at
all, i.e.:
tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1:0 prio 10 handle 10 fw flowid 1:10
But all it returns with is:
RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

Is it possible to do a fwmark match without a protocol? Or is there any
other way around my problem?

Thanks,
Alan
