Hi, Below 2 xfrm ipsec related commits have already been merged to mainline. From Herbert Xu. Description: Remove inner/outer modes from input/output path. These are not needed anymore. xfrm: Remove inner/outer modes from output path (commit: f4796398f21b9844017a2dac883b1dd6ad6edd60) xfrm: Remove inner/outer modes from input path (commit: 5f24f41e8ea62a6a9095f9bbafb8b3aebe265c68) Reason for backporting – We have transport mode interleaved with tunnel mode support as part of ipsec with compression offering. These commits in v6.1 LTS would help. Requesting to apply these commits to Kernel LTS version 6.1. Thanks, Srisakthi S
