I agree to your suggestion.
> For the inline crypto on ixgbe we only flag the mbuf with the security error flag, but no extra info is added. I guess we can have a ipsec crypto error event with a list of failed mbufs or similar. In any case, it's just a suggestion.
Do you think having a crypto error with failed mbufs would be useful? If 
yes, I can add that. While considering other SA specific events, there 
could be two other such events that we may need to consider.
1) Byte expiry of SA [1]
2) Time expiry of SA [1]

Shall I add these events? Or do we need to make that a separate patch? 
Considering that it would need an entry in conf for actually of any use.
