Hi David and folks,

In include/linux/pfkeyv2.h, is the type 'u_int32_t' for sadb_x_kmprivate_reserved intentional or just an error while bringing in the PF_KEY IPsec extensions from KAME?

struct sadb_x_kmprivate {
       uint16_t        sadb_x_kmprivate_len;
       uint16_t        sadb_x_kmprivate_exttype;
       u_int32_t       sadb_x_kmprivate_reserved;    <====
} __attribute__((packed));

This is causing erroneous ipsec-tools builds. How does the __BIT_TYPES_DEFINED define work? Seems like u_int32_t does not get defined in include/linux/types.h when building a userland program such as ipsec-tools.

An easy fix is to change the type to uint32_t. Patch attached.

Thanks.

Description:
    When bringing over the PF_KEY extensions for IPsec from the
KAME stack, folks probably forgot to change this only variable
to be of type uint32_t. Or otherwise. This is the easiest and 
harmless fix.
