Stephen,

 You can reproduce this issue in 2.6.37 like below. And the previous
gdb log is after the install the debuginfo package in SUSE.

And If without -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 in gcc, it works fine, so It's a
bug in iproute2 which is not conforming to -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
restrictions.

FORTIFY assumes we cant copy a string on alg.u.alg.alg_key !

This completely precludes 0-sized arrays

struct xfrm_algo {
        char            alg_name[64];
        unsigned int    alg_key_len;    /* in bits */
        char            alg_key[0];
};

struct {
      union {
          struct xfrm_algo alg;
          struct xfrm_algo_aead aead;
          struct xfrm_algo_auth auth;
      } u;
      char buf[XFRM_ALGO_KEY_BUF_SIZE];
} alg = {};

I would say its a FORTIFY bug. This kind of construct is perfectly
valid.
