linux-ipsec: Freeswan on Netwinder

Thanks for the reply.

I have been busy debugging this over the past week and have it narrowed down to a problem with GMP. I turned on the pluto debugging messages and after some searching discovered that the n_to_mpz and mpz_to_n functions do not return the correct values.

I wrote this code to prove that it was GMP messing things up:

    main()
    {
      MP_INT mp;     

      mpz_init_set_ui(&mp,0x1234);
      mpz_mul_ui(&mp,&mp,0x100);
      printf("MP=%s\n",mpz_get_str(NULL,16,&mp));

On the Netwinder, it outputs "MP=FF93EB523400". On an x86, it outputs "MP=123400" as expected.

Someone on the Netwinder developers mailing list suggested that some versions of GMP have faulty ARM inline assembly and he recommended that I turn them off. I am working on doing that now.

If anyone has any ideas on how to get this working, please let me know.

Do you need help?
