Aha, RGB! a customer for the skb->{security,ipcb,fwmark} mechanism. Well maybe. skb->security (16-bit) skb->nfmark (much contention for this field)

is it planed to be able to set nfmark value per connecction for later processing with iptables ?

        skb->cb                 (see linux/ip.h, and net/ip.h's IPCB macro)
