Hello,
Experiencing an issue with version 5.8.0. We have two gateways in an HA 
arrangement. When the current master goes down, the backup takes over ok but 
when the old master comes backup (as the back up) and attempts to the re-sync 
the tunnel list from the new master (took over for the old master when the 
master was rebooted), I see the following msgs in the charon.log:

Nov 30 04:10:40.571 01[CFG] HA: accepted new connection request from 
fd00:2600:2600:115:1::1  # The rebooted old master is now coming back up

                                  # The rebooted old master starts its 
strongswan HA "sync" connection to us (the new master)

3 questions:

  1.  The crash appears to have been caused by the "pulling message failed 
condition?
  2.  I don't find a core anywhere, should charon have generated a core as 
result of the "thread 5 received 11" condition?
  3.  Are there significant HA fixes/enhancements in strongswan 5.9.x ? Maybe 
we should upgrade?

thx
