i dont have much idea what u r trying to do but i can advice a bit.

As u r trying to modify the ip payload content(by compressing it). So
for this u can extend Netfilter & can make a new iptables targets. That is u can create ur own target for iptables which will compress or decompress the ip payload before sending or after recieving.

As when a packet is recieved or sent the whole content is stored in sk_buff structure so try to change the payload part of this structure using this iptables target.

to learn abt iptables search 4 iptables HOWTOs..

if it works plz tell me.
