Subject: Re: [PATCH] gre: copy ToS/DiffServ bits to outer IP header

Now using the rtnl_link interface.

>> When tunneling IP traffic with GRE this patch makes it possible to 
>> export the ToS/DiffServ information to the outer IP header.
>> This is particularly useful in a scenario with ESP/AH where the inner 
>> IP header is encrypted but the packet priority/DiffServ information
>> should still be respected by the transporting routers (for example in 
>> an MPLS backbone network).
>>
>> The feature is disabled by default and can be enabled on a 
>> per-interface basis.
>>
>> Also does this bring Linux back in the game, as JunOS/IOS provide this 
>> for quite some time:
>> http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/11_3/feature/guide/greqos.html
