Changes from v2: - Fix sk use after free and possible netdev use after free - tls device now keeps a refernce on the offloading netdev - tls device registers to the netdev notifer. Upon a NETDEV_DOWN event, offload is stopped and the reference on the netdev is dropped. - SW fallback support for skb->ip_summed != CHECKSUM_PARTIAL - Merged TLS patches are no longer part of this series. Changes from v1: - Remove the binding of the socket to a specific netdev through sk->sk_bound_dev_if. Add a check in validate_xmit_skb to detect route changes and call SW fallback code to do the crypto in software. - tls_get_record now returns the tls record sequence number. This is required to support connections with rcd_sn != iv. - Bug fixes to the TLS code. This patchset adds a generic infrastructure to offload TLS crypto to a network devices. patches 1-2 Export functions that we need patch 3 adds infrastructue for offloaded socket fallback patches 4-5 add new NDOs and capabilities. patch 6 adds the TLS NIC offload infrastructure. Github with mlx5e TLS offload support: https://github.com/Mellanox/tls-offload/tree/tls_device_v3I don't get it. You are pushing infra but not the actual driver part who is consuming the infra? Why?
Okay. Since the driver that uses the API introduced by this patchset is missing, this patchset should be marked as RFC. Dave, I see that you were about to apply v2. I'm sure you missed this. Thanks.
