I was under the impression that ECHAINIV was the default IV generator for CBC. At least that's what the help text said. Upon further investigation I found that the default is either chainiv or eseqiv (according to crypto_default_geniv). In this case it's true, net/ipvx/Kconfig files need to be patched.
Perhaps we also need to patch the help test. Only IPsec uses IV generation through echainiv/eseqiv. Thanks, -- Email: Herbert Xu [off-list ref] Home Page: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/ PGP Key: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/pubkey.txt
