RFC 4303 in section 3.3.3 suggests to disable anti-replay for manually distributed ICVs in which case the sender does not need to monitor or reset the counter. However, the sender still increments the counter and when it reaches the maximum value, the counter rolls over back to zero. This patch introduces new extra_flag XFRM_SA_XFLAG_OSEQ_MAY_WRAP which allows sequence number to cycle in outbound packets if set. This flag is used only in legacy and bmp code, because esn should not be negotiated if anti-replay is disabled (see note in 3.3.3 section).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
