Wishlist: Kernel with XFRM (transform interfaces support?) (no replies)

Hi,

I just installed thelatest kernel from you on my Zyxel NSA325v2

Linux zyxxy2 5.9.12-kirkwood-tld-1 #1.0 PREEMPT Sat Dec 5 14:05:39 PST 2020 armv5tel GNU/Linux

but I reconed that XFRM interfaces aren't compiled in the kernel :-( (see screenshot, which I have now marked as module)



root@zyxxy2:/usr/src# ip link add xfrm3 type xfrm dev eth0 if_id 0x123 
Error: Unknown device type.
root@zyxxy2:/usr/src# uname -a
Linux zyxxy2 5.9.12-kirkwood-tld-1 #1.0 PREEMPT Sat Dec 5 14:05:39 PST 2020 armv5tel GNU/Linux
root@zyxxy2:/usr/src#

Would it break something else if you enable this in your kernel config?
xtrm Interfaces are used for strongswan as tunnel interfaces, which make lots of thing much easier than vti interfaces - since the marvell cpu has a build in crypto-engine, that option should make a lot of sense, I think:-)

Cheers
