From 37fedd3aab6517daec628764c5d66dd8761fbe5f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu Date: Wed, 10 Oct 2007 15:44:44 -0700 Subject: [IPSEC]: Use IPv6 calling convention as the convention for x->mode->output The IPv6 calling convention for x->mode->output is more general and could help an eventual protocol-generic x->type->output implementation. This patch adopts it for IPv4 as well and modifies the IPv4 type output functions accordingly. It also rewrites the IPv6 mac/transport header calculation to be based off the network header where practical. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu Signed-off-by: David S.
