Using 2.6.11-rc3 with Openswan, no IPSEC SA can be established. Kernel
logs "kernel: ESP: md5 digestsize 16 != 0" and netlink returns an error.

The changes to XFRM in 2.6.11-rc3 have an error in xfrm_algo.c such that
xfrm_aalg_get_byname() always returns digest_null (which would indeed
have a zero length digest...)

The problem is here:

$ diff -Naur net/xfrm/xfrm_algo.c*

        for (i = 0; i < entries; i++) {
-               if (strcmp(name, list[i].name) != 0)
+               if (!strcmp(name, list[i].name))
                        continue;
 
                if (list[i].available)


where the sense of (!strcmp()) is reversed. It's easier to read by
explicitly comparing to zero, IMHO, as I did in this patch.
