The ip(8) man page and the "ip xfrm [ XFRM-OBJECT ] help" command output
are updated to include missing options, fix errors, and improve grammar.
There are no functional changes made.
The documentation for the ip command has many different meanings for the
same formatting symbols (which really needs to be fixed). This patch makes
consistent use of brackets [ ] to indicate optional parameters, pipes | to
mean "OR", braces { } to group things together, and dashes - instead of
underscores _ inside of parameter names. The parameters are listed in the
order in which they are parsed in the source code.
There are several parameters and options that are still not mentioned or
need to be described more thoroughly in the "COMMAND SYNTAX" section of
the ip(8) man page. I would appreciate help from the developers with this.

Hi,
here is a patch against iproute2 to allow user to set a state with a specific
auth length.
Example:
$ ip xfrm state add src 10.16.0.72 dst 10.16.0.121 proto ah spi 0x10000000
auth-trunc "sha256" "azertyuiopqsdfghjklmwxcvbn123456" 96 mode tunnel
$ ip xfrm state
src 10.16.0.72 dst 10.16.0.121
proto ah spi 0x10000000 reqid 0 mode tunnel
replay-window 0
auth-trunc hmac(sha256)
0x617a6572747975696f707173646667686a6b6c6d77786376626e313233343536 96
sel src 0.0.0.0/0 dst 0.0.0.0/0
Regards,
Nicolas

Subject: [PATCH] iproute2: allow to specify truncation bits on auth algo
Attribute XFRMA_ALG_AUTH_TRUNC can be used to specify
truncation bits, so we add a new algo type: auth-trunc.

In the Linux kernel, ipsec policy and SAs can include a
security context to support MAC networking. This feature
is often referred to as "labeled ipsec".
This patchset adds security context support into ip xfrm
such that a security context can be included when
add/delete/display SAs and policies with the ip command.
The user provides the security context when adding
SAs and policies. If a policy or SA contains a security
context, the changes allow the security context to be displayed.
For example,
ip xfrm state
src 10.1.1.6 dst 10.1.1.2
proto esp spi 0x00000301 reqid 0 mode transport
replay-window 0
auth hmac(digest_null) 0x3078
enc cbc(des3_ede) 0x6970763672656164796c6f676f33646573636263696e3031
security context root:system_r:unconfined_t:s0
Please let me know if all is ok with the patchset.
Thanks!!
regards,
Joy

When using iproute2 to display information on policies installed in kernel
(ip x p s) output is incorrect: IPv6 addresses printed as IPv4 addresses.
In case I am dealing with inter protocol policies where the template's address
family differs from those of the policy itself.
The patch attached solves this problem.
This patch allows the user to create/manage AEAD algorithms with
the ip xfrm command. AEAD algorithms are also known as combined-
mode algorithms. They provide the functionality of encryption
algorithms as well as authentication algorithms.

Fix xfrm state or policy flush message.
And minor updates are included:
o Use static buffer to show unknown value as string.
o Show policy type (ptype) only when kernel specified it.
o Clean-up xfrm_monitor.

o Support policy flag with string format.
Note that kernel defines only one name "localok" for the flag
and it has not had any effect currently.
o Support state flag value XFRM_STATE_NOPMTUDISC.
o Fix to show detailed flags value when "-s" option is used.
o Fix minor typo.

In order to support these new flags add current
linux/if.h into the directory with the local copies.
This caused troubles with outdated redefinitions from net/if.h
so I've removed the dependency on it.

To support Mobile IPv6 RO, the following extension is included:
o Use XFRM_MODE_XXX macro instead of magic number
o New attribute option for all state: source address for
deleting or getting message
o New attribute options for RO: care-of address, last-used timestamp
and wild-receive flag
Note:
Flush command like `ip xfrm state flush` is to remove all XFRM state.
It has been effected for IPsec SAD but with this patch it flushes both
IPsec SAD and Mobile IPv6 RO states.
To make only IPsec SA flush, it is recommanded to specify each XFRM
protocol like below:
`ip x s f proto esp ; ip x s f proto ah ; ip x s f proto comp`
