I ran into occasional BUGs in scatterlist.h, which turned out the be caused by accessing an uninitialized scatterlist entry from eseqiv. I'm not sure whether this patch is correct since I'm seeing invalid packets with and without this patch (probably related to HIFN though) and I don't understand why scatterwalk_sg_next() returns either a scatterlist or a struct page dependant on the length, but at least it fixes the BUG() for me :)
commit 7be04e75bc64dc288e51f83495d89135a8c9d4d7 Author: Patrick McHardy <kaber@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Apr 28 19:24:23 2008 +0200 [XFRM]: esp: fix scatterlist of out bounds access with crypto_eseqiv ESP allocates a src scatterlist for the exact amount of scatterlist entries. In the IPSec case (IV is directly before the plaintext data) eseqiv_chain() calls scatterwalk_sg_next(), which advances the scatterlist by one, pointing to uninitalized memory. When sg->length is zero, it returns sg_page(sg), which BUGs with DEBUG_SG enabled because the magic number is invalid. Allocate and initialize a spare scatterlist entry in esp4/esp6 to fix this.
