From ec6c4d0ac90344251c631a58493ac680a19eca8a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu Date: Fri, 25 Apr 2008 01:41:47 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] IPSEC: Fix catch-22 with algorithm IDs above 31 [ Upstream commit: c5d18e984a313adf5a1a4ae69e0b1d93cf410229 ] As it stands it's impossible to use any authentication algorithms with an ID above 31 portably. It just happens to work on x86 but fails miserably on ppc64. The reason is that we're using a bit mask to check the algorithm ID but the mask is only 32 bits wide. After looking at how this is used in the field, I have concluded that in the long term we should phase out state matching by IDs because this is made superfluous by the reqid feature. For current applications, the best solution IMHO is to allow all algorithms when the bit masks are all ~0. The following patch does exactly that. This bug was identified by IBM when testing on the ppc64 platform using the NULL authentication algorithm which has an ID of 251. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu Signed-off-by: David S.
