Trusted Platform Modules. This allows the Attestation IMC/IMV pair to
do TPM 2.0 based attestation.
- Enhanced the functionality of the swanctl --list-conns command by
listing IKE_SA and CHILD_SA reauthentication and rekeying settings.
- The behavior during IKEv2 exchange collisions has been improved/fixed in
several corner cases and support for TEMPORARY_FAILURE and CHILD_SA_NOT_FOUND
notifies, as defined by RFC 7296, has been added.
- IPsec policy rule priorities can be set manually and restricted to a
network interface.
- IPsec policy priorities can be set manually (e.g. for high-priority drop
policies) and outbound policies may be restricted to a network interface.
- The scheme for the automatically calculated default priorities has been
changed and now also considers port masks, which were added with 5.4.0.
- FWD policies are now installed in both directions in regards to the traffic
selectors. Because such "outbound" FWD policies could conflict with "inbound"
FWD policies of other SAs they are installed with a lower priority and don't
have a reqid set, which allows kernel plugins to distinguish between the two
and prefer those with a reqid.
- For outbound IPsec SAs no replay window is configured anymore.
- Enhanced the functionality of the swanctl --list-conns command by listing
IKE_SA and CHILD_SA reauthentication and rekeying settings, and EAP/XAuth
identities and EAP types.
- DNS servers installed by the resolve plugin are now refcounted, which should
fix its use with make-before-break reauthentication. Any output written to
stderr/stdout by resolvconf is now logged.
- The methods in the kernel interfaces have been changed to take structs instead
of long lists of arguments. Similarly the constructors for peer_cfg_t and
child_cfg_t now take structs.
