[PATCH net-next v17 04/15] tls: add TLS 1.3 hardware offload support

From: Rishikesh Jethwani <hidden>
Date: 2026-09-17 22:45:08
Subsystem: networking [general], networking [tls], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, John Fastabend, Sabrina Dubroca, Linus Torvalds

Add TLS 1.3 support to the kernel TLS hardware offload infrastructure,
enabling hardware acceleration for TLS 1.3 connections on capable NICs.
The dispatch-side restructure needed to make this safe on the rekey
path lands in a preceding patch ("tls: reject rekey attempts on an
existing HW-offloaded connection"); this patch is limited to the
device / device_fallback side:

  - Drop the TLS_1_2_VERSION guards in tls_set_device_offload() and
    tls_set_device_offload_rx() so 1.3 crypto_info is accepted.

  - tls_device_record_close(): append TLS 1.3's content_type byte
    together with the tag as one tail segment; use the pre-populated
    dummy_page (identity-mapped byte values) as the fallback when
    pfrag allocation fails so the content_type byte lands on the
    dummy path too.

  - tls_device_reencrypt(): use prot->prepend_size instead of an
    open-coded TLS_HEADER_SIZE + iv, so the 1.3 prepend layout is
    handled correctly.

  - tls_device_fallback.c / tls_enc_record(): thread tls_context in
    to reach crypto_send for the 1.3 static IV; select IV source and
    length adjustment based on prot->version; XOR the IV with the
    record sequence via tls_xor_iv_with_seq() for 1.3; use
    prot->aad_size and prot->prepend_size instead of the 1.2-only
    constants. Inline the single caller of tls_init_aead_request().

  - tls_device_init(): pre-populate dummy_page with an identity byte
    map so any record_type used as a page offset yields the correct
    content_type byte on the fallback path (avoids a runtime range
    check).

Tested on Mellanox ConnectX-6 Dx (Crypto Enabled) with TLS 1.3
AES-GCM-128 and AES-GCM-256 cipher suites.
