Hi,

Does ESP support 64 bit sequence numbering for use with the
authentication HMAC ?

I've looked at struct aead_givcrypt_request and it has a u64 seq member.
Does ESP populate this with a 64 bit sequence number ?

If 32 bit sequence numbering negotiated then how does the HMAC routine
know that it should not use the top 32 bits of seq ? Or is it simply
that if the top 32 bits are zero then the HMAC just uses the lower 32
bits ?

Thanks for any insight.

Regards,
