Jakub Kicinski says: ==================== net/tls: separate the TLS TOE code out We have 3 modes of operation of TLS - software, crypto offload (Mellanox, Netronome) and TCP Offload Engine-based (Chelsio). The last one takes over the socket, like any TOE would, and is not really compatible with how we want to do things in the networking stack. Confusingly the name of the crypto-only offload mode is TLS_HW, while TOE-offload related functions use tls_hw_ as their prefix. Engineers looking to implement offload are also be faced with TOE artefacts like struct tls_device (while, again, CONFIG_TLS_DEVICE actually gates the non-TOE offload). To improve the clarity of the offload code move the TOE code into new files, and rename the functions and structures appropriately. Because TOE-offload takes over the socket, and makes no use of the TLS infrastructure in the kernel, the rest of the code (anything beyond the ULP setup handlers) do not have to worry about the mode == TLS_HW_RECORD case. The increase in code size is due to duplication of the full license boilerplate. Unfortunately original author (Dave Watson) seems unreachable :( ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
