Heya,


I notice that -m conntrack --ctstate INVALID marks what seems to be a 
legitimate packet. StrongSWAN sends out fragmented and large packets for 
PMTUD, and the returning ICMP packet too big from the tunnel provider 
falls victim to ctstate INVALID.

Observed on the left side running 2.6.33.x:

MAC=00:24:21:a7:24:e1:00:21:59:c5:58:5f:08:00:45:00:05:14:00:00:40:00:fb:29:3c:6d:d8:42:50:1e:bc:28:59:ca

And even on the other side running a 2.6.34-rc1:

packet too big, mtu 1430, length 1240

An idea what's up in nf_conntrack_ipv6?
