Subject: Re: [PATCH] sctp: IPsec rules are ineffective with ipv6
Date: Thu, 28 Jan 2010 19:25:29 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4B61D699.9030008@dev.6wind.com> (raw)

Hmm, seems to not work.
Problem is that we may have a NULL saddr in sctp_v6_get_dst().
What about adding a new handler in struct sctp_af, like get_xfrm_dst() that will 
be called after get_saddr()? In case of IPv4, it will not do anything.


Regards,
Nicolas
