A wireguard kernel implementation supporting FreeBSD 12.1 and newer was
added as net/wireguard-kmod recently.
The new default for users of net/wireguard is the kernel module where it
is supported and needs to be loaded at boot time from your /etc/rc.conf
or /etc/rc.conf.d/wireguard file:
kld_list="/boot/modules/if_wg.ko"
The new default for users of net/wireguard is the kernel module.
If you experience problems with it you can switch back to wireguard-go
easily by unloading (or not loading) the kernel module. The userland
tools wg-quick(8) and wg(8) try to use kernel support and otherwise fall
back to wireguard-go automatically. Config files are fully compatible.
