socat can do either packet streams or byte streams. A UDP socket (or a
tun/tap interface) is a packet stream. TCP is a byte stream. You can't
forward a packet stream into a byte stream. (Well, OK, socat does allow
you to set that up, but it won't work.)

You need wrap your packets in some sort of frame (simplest: precede each
with a length word (but think about byte ordering)). I'm sure there are
programs which do that, or you can write your own. socat can't do it.
