I normally understand that we don't want kernel changes made within a release-cycle, but these are fairly minor changes (after all, full on optio= ns IPSEC is in -GENERIC) and it's pretty clear by the inclusion of the module = that this support was intended to be there. Failing that, might there be a possibility of breaking out the ipsec_support option to a loadable that applies to -GENERIC as well? Perhaps something t= hat could be compiled and loaded alongside base, even if not distributed with i= t? Updating to -STABLE on production systems is even more irritating than a cu= stom kernel. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
