We wish to implement AES-GCM in the FreeBSD OCF whith the main aim of using it in IPsec [a]. I have a number of questions: 1. What mailing list is the most appropriate for questions and comments related to this subject? 2. What is the best way to share any work done? (pacthes to mailing list?) 3. Is it best to work of HEAD when implementing the solution? 4. We aim to port the work done for openbsd [b][c]. Does anybody know of any specific pitfalls, gotchas etc. when using this approach? (E.g.I assume the FreeBSD OCF has diverged from OpenBSDs over the years) [a] - RFC4106: The Use of Galois/Counter Mode (GCM) in IPsec Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP), http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4106 [b] - AES-GCM Part 1: AES-GCM implementation, http://marc.info/?t=128233110500001&r=1&w=2 [c] - AES-GCM Part 2: PFKEY/ESP, http://marc.info/?t=128258773600009&r=1&w=2
