Currently all marking always happends in the PREROUTING chain. This
doesn't catch locally generated traffic and thus also doesn't allow
using match extensions like cgroup, owner or socket which are useful
e.g. to re-route traffic from a specific local process (eg. dnsmasq).
Similar to the rules in other tables, I'd assume that rules without any
source should affect locally generated traffic and thus MARK rules
should end up in the mangle table's OUTPUT chain in that case.


Cheers


Daniel
