PS6, Line 603:  * number of number of block + packets. Return -1 if ciphername 
is not an AEAD
"blocks"


File src/openvpn/crypto.c:

http://gerrit.openvpn.net/c/openvpn/+/796/comment/884aa131_043fac76 :
PS6, Line 353:      *      q + s <= (p^36 - 1)
`2^36`


http://gerrit.openvpn.net/c/openvpn/+/796/comment/5487e9b6_1af10abb :
PS6, Line 502:     /* update number of plaintext blocks decrypted. Use the x + 
(n-1)/n trick
Should be `(x + (n-1))/n`. The code is correct, but comment is wrong.


http://gerrit.openvpn.net/c/openvpn/+/796/comment/38ba5a32_7a3341ec :
PS6, Line 503:      * to round up the result to the number of blocked used. */
"blocks"


http://gerrit.openvpn.net/c/openvpn/+/796/comment/4cbb5beb_e82ad0e6 :
PS6, Line 505:     opt->key_ctx_bi.decrypt.plaintext_blocks += (outlen + 
(blocksize - 1))/blocksize;
So we increase this number before we have done all checks on the packet. 
Doesn't that open us up to potential attacks that force renegotiation by 
replaying packets?


File src/openvpn/ssl.c:

http://gerrit.openvpn.net/c/openvpn/+/796/comment/dc63e5a8_82d0b335 :
PS6, Line 144:     /* set limit to 7/8 of the limit so the renogiation has can 
succeeds before
"renegotiation can succeed" ?


File src/openvpn/ssl_common.h:

http://gerrit.openvpn.net/c/openvpn/+/796/comment/728ac18b_aa309cd4 :
PS6, Line 336:     /** This limit for AEAD cipher, this is the sum of packets + 
blocks
"This" -> "The"? Or maybe just remove it?


File tests/unit_tests/openvpn/test_crypto.c:

http://gerrit.openvpn.net/c/openvpn/+/796/comment/fd854db2_f454d881 :
PS6, Line 463:     int64_t L = 101;
Please mention or use AEAD_LIMIT_BLOCKSIZE
