Hi,
It is the responsibility of the interface drivers to allocate the hw_address
i.e.:
error = ethernet_register_interface (vnm, virtio_device_class.index,
vif->dev_instance, vif->mac_addr,
&vif->hw_if_index,

Right, VPP model is different: it does not keep track of lifetime and the
control plane must poll the per-SA bytes counters instead (which is what eg.
the VPP ike2 plugin is

Hi Benoit,
Strongswan keeps track for whatever is required but kernel feeds the
relevant information via events.
For *child sa*, in the kernel world, it is kernel which XFRM_EXPIRE message
via netlink. The strongswan is listening of netlink events for the same.
When it receives events from the k
Hi Venu,
I am not familiar with the kernel-vpp plugin you mention, however if I
understand correctly your question is how strongSwan can know it must trigger a
rekey because of time expiration or max bytes transferred?
VPP IPsec does not manage SA lifetimes by itself, it is the responsibility of

It is allocated when registering an interface which uses a hw_address. The
common case is Ethernet:
ethernet_register_interface()
ethernet_set_ma
