David S. Miller 758a0a4d60 Merge branch 'tls-add-support-for-kernel-driven-resync-and-nfp-RX-offload'
Jakub Kicinski says:

====================
tls: add support for kernel-driven resync and nfp RX offload

This series adds TLS RX offload for NFP and completes the offload
by providing resync strategies.  When TLS data stream looses segments
or experiences reorder NIC can no longer perform in line offload.
Resyncs provide information about placement of records in the
stream so that offload can resume.

Existing TLS resync mechanisms are not a great fit for the NFP.
In particular the TX resync is hard to implement for packet-centric
NICs.  This patchset adds an ability to perform TX resync in a way
similar to the way initial sync is done - by calling down to the
driver when new record is created after driver indicated sync had
been lost.

Similarly on the RX side, we try to wait for a gap in the stream
and send record information for the next record.  This works very
well for RPC workloads which are the primary focus at this time.

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.
