= the idea called per cpu sa in out going direction was discussed at Linux IPsec workshop in Prague. The following two worked on proto type. Libreswan picket terminology "clones".

Kernel / xfrm plans

  • Release private branch on Steffen's repository to get wider testing.
  • Kernel support for rekey. Possibly with refcounting the linked list on the Head SA. One could rekey in any order - either head SA or sub SA.
  • Ben would like to add feature bind a sub sa to a head SA,


Libreswan Plans

  • Currently support clones=n. Both sides should have same number.
  • support for asymetric configuration, one side 8(initiator) and responder (4).
  • rekey support
  • fix bugs down and delete.
  • don't allow clone instance on its own to be add|delete|down on the unaliased name.
  • test interop with unsupported version. ideally we should figure it out and not install clones. It could be that we will install clones and the last one would be used.
