With libreswan upgrade to 4.5.x, I've noticed changes in the output of 'ipsec 
whack --status' command. I relied on 'IPsec SA
established' to verify the active tunnels. With the upgraded version this 
string is not present in the output. I rather notice
'STATE_V2_ESTABLISHED_CHILD_SA (established Child SA)' and 
'STATE_V2_ESTABLISHED_IKE_SA (established IKE SA)'. 

"ipsec trafficstatus" would be easier and better for you to use.

Also, please share details on different states for the tunnels ( 
STATE_V2_ESTABLISHED_CHILD_SA , STATE_V2_ESTABLISHED_IKE_SA etc etc
). 

Child SA's are IPsec SA's, aka "phase 2" aka kernel state. The IKE SA is
the Parent SA, aka "phase 1" aka userland/ike state.

ipsec whack --status will be due to change once every couple of
releases. We are looking at outputting this using a json or yang
format in the future that would be easier to parse and use.
