> In the latest version of the IPv6 Segment Routing IETF draft [1] the > cleanup flag is removed and the flags field length is shrunk from 16 bits > to 8 bits. As a consequence, the input of the HMAC computation is modified > in a non-backward compatible way by covering the whole octet of flags > instead of only the cleanup bit. As such, if an implementation compatible > with the latest draft computes the HMAC of an SRH who has other flags set > to 1, then the HMAC result would differ from the current implementation. > > This patch carries those modifications to prevent conflict with other > implementations of IPv6 SR. > > [1] https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-6man-segment-routing-header-05 > > Signed-off-by: David Lebrun <david.leb...@uclouvain.be> Applied.
