[strongSwan-dev] [PATCH] child-sa: Add option to install mark on inbound kernel SA

Tue Aug 22 17:22:56 CEST 2017


The following commit removed the assignment of the child_sa mark_in to
the inbound SA:

067fd2c69c25 ("child-sa: Do not install mark on inbound kernel SA")

However marking the inbound SA may be needed in some use cases.
Add a global strongswan.conf option to choose the behavior:

   mark_inbound_sa = no|yes

If mark_inbound_sa is no, never mark the inbound kernel SA.
If mark_inbound_sa is yes, assign the child_sa mark_in to the inbound
kernel SA.
