Make libreswan driver work with recent versions
LibreSwan 3.19 introduces a new commandline argument '--nssdir' for
pluto which defaults to '/etc/ipsec.d'. As older versions don't
understand such an option, we cannot just add it to the commandline.
The commandline arguments of LibreSwan are not stable enough to rely on.
For example, in 3.19, 'ipsec initnss' has the new argument '--nssdir',
and in 3.20, 'ipsec pluto' also gets this new argument '--nssdir', then
in 3.22, the argument '--ctlbase' is phased out.
In this commit, instead of trying new options and then fallback to old
ones for older versions, the bind-mount method used in StrongSwan driver
is adopted. With /etc and /var/run bind mounted, all the commandline
arguments related to configuration file places can be removed. This
ensures that changes of such arguments between different versions won't
bother as the default places are always used.
This commit also replaces 'auth=' by 'phase2=' in the configuration
template as the former is for a long time an alias of the latter and
removed in LibreSwan 3.19.
The virtual-private argument of 'ipsec pluto' has been put into the
configuration file to avoid commas(,) in the commandline so that the
netns_wrapper can work well.
A new tempest job for running LibreSwan as the device driver on CentOS 7
is also added to avoid regression.
This commit has been simply tested on CentOS 7.4 with the following
versions of LibreSwan provided by the CentOS repo:
- libreswan-3.12-5.el7.x86_64.rpm
- libreswan-3.12-10.1.el7_1.x86_64.rpm
- libreswan-3.15-5.el7_1.x86_64.rpm
- libreswan-3.15-8.el7.x86_64.rpm
- libreswan-3.20-3.el7.x86_64.rpm
- libreswan-3.20-5.el7_4.x86_64.rpm
and different versions of LibreSwan provided by libreswan.org[1]:

Title:
libreswan ipsec driver doesn't work with libreswan versions 3.19+
Status in neutron:
Fix Released
Bug description:
VPNaaS agent on RHEL and derivatives uses libreswan as the OpenSwan
replacement.
This integration of the VPN agent with libreswan is handled by
https://github.com/openstack/neutron-
vpnaas/blob/master/neutron_vpnaas/services/vpn/device_drivers/libreswan_ipsec.py
On the Jan 15, 2017 libreswan team released version 3.19 that
introduced a change that requires to specify an additional flag for
NSS DB location if it differs from a default one. Obviously this is an
issue for VPNaaS because the libreswan_ipsec.py still uses the old
invocation scheme and this results in the following:

This issue can be easily solved by adding the --nssdir option in lines
59 and 61 of https://github.com/openstack/neutron-
vpnaas/blob/master/neutron_vpnaas/services/vpn/device_drivers/libreswan_ipsec.py
Like this:
try:
--- self._execute([self.binary, 'checknss', self.etc_dir])
+++ self._execute([self.binary, 'checknss', '--nssdir', self.etc_dir])
except RuntimeError:
--- self._execute([self.binary, 'initnss', self.etc_dir])
+++ self._execute([self.binary, 'initnss', '--nssdir', self.etc_dir])
After the change:
2017-08-17 22:53:25.734 863363 DEBUG neutron.agent.linux.utils [-] Running command (rootwrap daemon): ['ip', 'netns', 'exec', 'snat-376e79e2-51c0-4907-85b3-4ec9af2b0c11', 'ipsec', 'checknss

I propose to commit this fix to the
neutron_vpnaas/services/vpn/device_drivers/libreswan_ipsec.py
Alternatively, the code can be changed to include the version check of
libreswan, so that the ipsec nssdb calls could retain backward
compatibility and the possibility to backport this fix.
