I see that this is also a candidate for my purpose but as I understood
IPv6 HopByHop-extension-headers they
must be processed by every node (also the forwarding ) along the packets
delivery path.
RFC2292 provides a way of accessing these options and to add new ones to
the ipv6-kernel-stack so there should be a way to get them out of the
kernel-space with somekind of advanced API, maybe I'am wrong???
