> [IPSEC]: Separate inner/outer mode processing on input > > With inter-family transforms the inner mode differs from the outer mode. > Attempting to handle both sides from the same function means that it > needs to handle both IPv4 and IPv6 which creates duplication and confusion. > > This patch separates the two parts on the input path so that each function > deals with one family only. > > In particular, the functions xfrm4_extract_inut/xfrm6_extract_inut > moves the pertinent fields from the IPv4/IPv6 IP headers into a neutral > format stored in skb->cb. This is then used by the inner mode input > functions to modify the inner IP header. In this way the input function > no longer has to know about the outer address family. > > Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Applied to net-2.6.25 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
