nfq_bind_pf(foo, PF_INET6) fails

[Johannes Gilger <gilger@umic.rwth-aachen.de>]

Hi netfilter-list,

I'm trying to adapt a legacy IPv4 NFQUEUE handler to support IPv6 as
well. As far as I understood the documentation I have to do:

nfq_unbind_pf(handle, AF_INET6);
nfq_bind_pf(handle, AF_INET6);

Which returns -1 in both cases. Simply ignoring the return value for
bind_pf is no solution either. I don't know where else to look, as the
program works fine when using AF_INET instead of AF_INET6.

I'm using the 2.6.38-10-generic-tuxonice (Ubuntu 11.04), x86_64. Modules
nfnetlink, nfnetlink_queue, ip_queue, ip6_queue are loaded. Any pointers
would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Jojo
