The IPv4 set tunnel action allows the setting of tunnel metadata such as the TTL and ToS values. The pre-tunnel action includes the destination IP address and is used to calculate the next hop from from the neighbour table. Much of the IPv4 tunnel actions can be reused for IPv6 tunnels. Change the names of associated functions and structs to remove the IPv4 identifier and make minor modifcations to support IPv6 tunnel actions. Ensure the pre-tunnel action contains the IPv6 address along with an identifying flag when an IPv6 tunnel action is required.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
