Re: [PATCH] [RFC] Support for wccp version 1 and 2 in ip_gre.c

Replying to Lincoln Dale:
the logic is correct, but it may make sense to call the appropriate 
netfilter hook again with the "unwrapped" GRE packet, as otherwise 
packets-inside-GRE represent a possible security hole where one can inject 
packets externally and bypass firewall rules.
From what I observe, netfilter hooks *are* called for unwrapped packets.
Either for usual IP packets  passed from GRE tunnel, or for demangled
wccp packets.
