The Libreswan Project has released libreswan-3.30

This is a major bugfix and feature release.

This release includes support for XFRMi virtual ipsec devices. This is
also the last release to support KLIPS based virtual ipsec devices.
Those using KLIPS should use this release to migrate to XFRMi.

Other new features include IPv6 roadwarrior/addresspool support, a
significant performance increase on processing X.509 certificates for
large scale systems and the Opportunistic IPsec (mesh or any-to-any)
support has been significantly improved to properly handle the cases of
nodes crashing or briefly not supporting Opportunistic IPsec.

This release follows the recommendation of RFC 8247 to no longer
support SHA1 for RFC 7427 style Digitial Signature support. This
can lead to interop issues with certain strongSwan configurations
that mistakenly negotiate SHA1 despite libreswan not sending
suppor for this using the Hash Algorithm Notify payload.

libreswan now also makes use of the new IKE PDF code inside the
NSS crypto library. As a result, libreswan itself currently no
longer needs a separate FIPS validation - validation of the NSS
library is enough.

For a full changelog, see below changelog for details.
