[PATCH 0/3] xfrm: ESP Traffic Flow Confidentiality padding (v3)

[PATCH 0/3] xfrm: ESP Traffic Flow Confidentiality padding (v3)

[Martin Willi]

The following patchset adds Traffic Flow Confidentiality padding. The
first patch introduces a new Netlink XFRM attribute to configure TFC via
userspace. Patch two and three implement the padding logic in IPv4 and
IPv6 ESP. Padding is always done using the RFC4303 format an is clamped
to the PMTU.

Changes from v2:
  - Remove unused flag field in attribute, use a plain u32 as attribute payload
  - Reject installation of TFC padding on non-tunnel SAs

[PATCH 1/3] xfrm: Add Traffic Flow Confidentiality padding XFRM attribute

[Martin Willi]

The XFRMA_TFCPAD attribute for XFRM state installation configures
Traffic Flow Confidentiality by padding ESP packets to a specified
length.

[PATCH 2/3] xfrm: Traffic Flow Confidentiality for IPv4 ESP

[Martin Willi]

Add TFC padding to all packets smaller than the boundary configured
on the xfrm state. If the boundary is larger than the PMTU, limit
padding to the PMTU.
