Re: adding new cipher support to kernel

2012-07-05 Thread Riaan Kruger
 Riaan: do you have a newer version of your patchset, or can I use the

 latest you sent to me ?

Yvan:

The last one I sent, I believe it was named  aesgcm_cleaned.diff is
the latest.
If there is anything I can help with, just say. I know I am not Mr.
Speedy, but I would like to help if I can :)

Yvan  Dylan:

Strongswan does not support aes gcm for freebsd; it does not have the
pfkey identifier in its kernel_pfkey plugin. All it needs is the
identifier in its kernel_pfkey plugin. We have a simple strongswan
patch for that.  The identifier is defined in the freebsd aes gcm
patches that Yvan is looking at.

AES-GCM in FreeBSD

2011-03-02 Thread Riaan Kruger
We wish to implement AES-GCM in the FreeBSD OCF whith the main aim of
using it in IPsec [a].  I have a number of questions:

1. What mailing list is the most appropriate for questions and
comments related to this subject?
2. What is the best way to share any work done? (pacthes to mailing list?)
3. Is it best to work of HEAD when implementing the solution?
4. We aim to port the work done for openbsd [b][c]. Does anybody know
of any specific pitfalls, gotchas etc. when using this approach?
(E.g.I assume the FreeBSD OCF has diverged from OpenBSDs over the
years)

[a] - RFC4106: The Use of Galois/Counter Mode (GCM) in IPsec
Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP),
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4106
[b] - AES-GCM Part 1: AES-GCM implementation,

[c] - AES-GCM Part 2: PFKEY/ESP, http://marc.info/?t=12825877369r=1w=2

Re: kgdb error: Ignoring packet error, continuing....

   Hi,

   I am trying to setup kgdb on serial console in freebsd. I have done
   the following steps.

   1. Compile the kernel with the following options
   options DDB
   options KDB
   makeoptions DEBUG-g

   2.Installed the kernel on the target machine.
   3. Transferred the kernel.debug to host machine.
   4. Modified the file /boot/device.hints in the target machine to have
   sio flags as
   hint.sio.0.at=isa
   hint.sio.0.port=0X3F8
   hint.sio.0.flags=0x80
   hint.sio.0.irq=4
   5. Reboot the target machine. At the loader prompt type the following
   set comconsole_speed=9600
   boot -d
   Then the target machine stops at ddb prompt.
   6.In the host machine type the following at kgdb prompt
   kgdb set remotebaud 9600
   kgdb file kernel.debug
   kgdb target remote /dev/cuad0

   This is not able to establish the connection.
   It is giving following errors.
   Ignoring packet error, continuing...
   Ignoring packet error,  continuing...
   Couldn't establish connection to remote target.
   Malformed response to offset query, timeout.

   Can any body tell why packet error is coming when kgdb is trying to
   establish the connection.

   Thanks in advance.

   Karim



I am not sure if it will help but according to on
http://www.lemis.com/grog/Papers/Debug-tutorial/tutorial.pdf the target :
You choose a serial port by setting bit 0x80 of the device flags in
/boot/loader.conf :
hint.sio.0.flags=0x90
In this example, bit 0x10 is also set to tell the kernel gdb stub to access
remote debugging
via this port.

Hope it helps
Riaan

PS. Sorry previous reply was only to Karin and not to the list as well.
