RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Aleš Mareček 2013-11-08 10:02:26 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #833910 +++

Description of problem:
It seems that openswan doesn't recognize option "loopback" in RHEL-7.
$ service ipsec start
failed to start openswan IKE daemon - the following error occured:
can not load config '/etc/ipsec.conf': /etc/ipsec.conf:17: syntax error, unexpected STRING [loopback]
$ head -17 /etc/ipsec.conf | tail -1
        loopback=yes


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openswan-2.6.37-3.el7

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run the beaker test: /CoreOS/openswan/Regression/bz711975-incomplete-policy-for-loopback-when-using
NOTE: There is also ipsec.conf included
  
Actual results:
FAIL

Expected results:
PASS (loopback option work in RHEL-6)

This works fine in libreswan. Can this be closed as notabug?

And is that connection work for you? 

I am currently testing labeled ipsec in mls on loopback, but it does not work even if I disable labeling, ie:

# echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/lo/disable_xfrm
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/lo/disable_policy
# ip xfrm state flush && ip xfrm policy flush
# cat /etc/ipsec.conf
...

Comment 6 Paul Wouters 2014-01-21 22:22:59 UTC 
On this last run it _does_ recognise the loopback option, and the SA establishes.

But you are not seeing the traffic flow properly. Could this be related to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=986065

that showed a fix and then regression again. Can you try with kernel-3.10.0-55.el7 ? (not newer and not older kernels)
Comment 7 Ondrej Moriš 2014-01-22 13:43:42 UTC 
It looks like it is not working for some time now, I have tried even kernel-3.10.0-55.el7 and it is still broken there. It would be the best to close this bug as verified since the issue reported here is definitely fixed now. The new issue is tracked separately - Bug 1056559.
