@hui.wang: Only the RPi is acting as the IPv6 gateway for the network (it sends router advertisements to internal LAN on br0, issued by dnsmasq - the relevant dnsmasq config is here: https://github.com/myxal/DigitalHome/blob/master/configurations/dnsmasq/dnsmasq.d/Echolife6.conf

The mac is unaware of the tunnel, it autoconfigures itself according to the router advertisements, and RPi forwards the packets according to normal forwaring rules. But we're getting off-topic here.

Regarding your config - the internal (br0) and external (he-ipv6) should have addresses from different prefixes. I'm not sure which of the settings is wrong, but seeing as you are setting the gateway to what looks like a correct address, I'm guessing your internal address is wrong. On tunnelbroker, this is listed as:

"Client IPv6 address" - this is the external address, and must be set exactly as indicated by tunnelbroker
"Server IPv6 address" - this is the gateway - seems correctly entered in the config
"Routed /64" - this is the prefix from which you'll pick an address for the internal (br0) interface. I picked ...::1 because it's easy to enter and remember.
