How about export an common function in xfrm_state.c to check this corner case?
This could be shared by both netlink and pfkey interface, and verify_userspi_info
simplified also?
int check_ipcomp_spirange(u8 proto, u32 high)
{
if ((proto == IPPROTO_COMP) && (high > 0xFFFF))
return -EINVAL;
else return 0;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(check_ipcomp_spirange);
