>Description:
One can't run ipsec with both esp + ah on 7.0-RELEASE with ipv6.  Trying to will
produce the kernel printf:

 kernel: ip6_output (ipsec): error code 22

and no output from the interface.

The problem looks to be here, in ipsec_output.c, ipsec_process_done():

       /*
         * If there's another (bundled) SA to apply, do so.
         * Note that this puts a burden on the kernel stack size.
         * If this is a problem we'll need to introduce a queue
         * to set the packet on so we can unwind the stack before
         * doing further processing.
         */
        if (isr->next) {
                ipsec4stat.ips_out_bundlesa++;
                return ipsec4_process_packet(m, isr->next, 0, 0);
        }

So for the second SA we try to apply it with ipsec4_process_packet(), which fails when handed an ipv6 packet.  By the way, things work fine with ipv4.

>How-To-Repeat:
Set up an association between two ipv6 hosts that calls for esp+ah.
