Just a side note.  It seems that there's a bug in libreswan's `ipsec
initnss` where it forgets to rebuild pkcs11.txt.  As a consequence:

rm /var/lib/ipsec/*.db # not pkcs11.txt
ipsec initnss

will recreate the DB described in pkcs11.txt; or perhaps that's a feature.

Unless you have some external tokens loaded, the typical choice is between the NSS Certificate DB module and the NSS Generic Crypto Services. Both can do all the crypto the other can do, only the NSS Certificate DB can store token objects, but may require a password before you access it (depending on if you have set a db password). NSS Generic Crypto Services does not require a password, and thus most operations use it. If you need to store a key, NSS can usually move it in this case. If you are in FIPS mode there is only one module, as you need to authenticate before you do any crypto operation.

So it looks like we are still using the ecSlotList for mlkem instead of adding a new mlkem slot list (sigh).
