When trying to setup IPsec configuration on a 64bits host with
iproute2(32bits compiled), the intended xfrm policy and sa is
either deficit or wrong when kernel trying to parse user land
information.

Add compat support for 32bits compiled ip command for 64bits host.

For now I think we should just refuse to do anything if someone tries
to configure ipsec with 32 bit tools on a 64 bit machine.
I'm fine with your point, and it would be a good choice to inform user =
about
this behavior other than just creating non-working SA and SP for user.

Subject: [PATCH net-next] xfrm: Do not parse 32bits compiled xfrm netli=
nk msg on
64bits host

structure like xfrm_usersa_info or xfrm_userpolicy_info has different s=
izeof
when compiled as 32bits and 64bits due to not appending pack attribute =
in
their definition. This will result in broken SA and SP information when=
user
trying to configure them through netlink interface.

Before forging a compatibility layer like we have it for system calls t=
o map
this correct. Inform user land about this situation instead of keeping =
silent,
then the upper test scripts could behave accordingly.

I'm ok with your patch, but it does not apply to ipsec-next.
Please rebase to ipsec-next current and resend.

Thanks!

I think this needs a log message, as it is not at all obvious that EPERM
means you ran a binary from the 'wrong' architecture.
