tls: remove tls_toe and the related driver

2026-06-12T23:43:10+00:00

The tls_toe feature and its single user (chelsio chtls) have been unmaintained for multiple years. It also hooks into the core of the TCP implementation, and bypasses most of the networking stack.

tls: Suppress spurious saved_data_ready on all receive paths

2026-06-09T03:10:21+00:00

Each record release via tls_strp_msg_done() triggered tls_strp_check_rcv(), which called tls_rx_msg_ready() and fired saved_data_ready(). During a multi-record receive, the first N-1 wakeups are pure overhead: the caller is already running and will pick up subsequent records on the next loop iteration. The recvmsg and splice_read paths share this waste. Suppress per-record notifications and emit a single one on reader exit. tls_rx_rec_done() releases the current record and parses the next without announcing; tls_strp_check_rcv() gains a bool announce parameter so callers can request the quiet form. tls_rx_reader_release() fires the deferred announce on exit through tls_rx_msg_maybe_announce(), an idempotent helper that calls saved_data_ready() only when a record is parsed and has not yet been announced. To keep the final notification idempotent against records that the BH or the worker has already announced, tls_strparser gains a msg_announced bit. tls_rx_msg_maybe_announce() sets the bit when firing saved_data_ready(); the bit is cleared whenever the parsed record is wiped, by tls_strp_msg_consume() on consumption or by tls_strp_msg_load() when the lower socket loses bytes from under the parse. A second call for the same parsed record -- as when recvmsg() satisfies the request from ctx->rx_list without touching the strparser -- becomes a no-op. With no remaining callers, tls_strp_msg_done() is removed.

net: tls: Cancel RX async resync request on rcd_delta overflow

2025-10-30T01:32:18+00:00

When a netdev issues a RX async resync request for a TLS connection, the TLS module handles it by logging record headers and attempting to match them to the tcp_sn provided by the device. If a match is found, the TLS module approves the tcp_sn for resynchronization. While waiting for a device response, the TLS module also increments rcd_delta each time a new TLS record is received, tracking the distance from the original resync request. However, if the device response is delayed or fails (e.g due to unstable connection and device getting out of tracking, hardware errors, resource exhaustion etc.), the TLS module keeps logging and incrementing, which can lead to a WARN() when rcd_delta exceeds the threshold. To address this, introduce tls_offload_rx_resync_async_request_cancel() to explicitly cancel resync requests when a device response failure is detected. Call this helper also as a final safeguard when rcd_delta crosses its threshold, as reaching this point implies that earlier cancellation did not occur.

net: tls: Change async resync helpers argument

2025-10-30T01:32:17+00:00

Update tls_offload_rx_resync_async_request_start() and tls_offload_rx_resync_async_request_end() to get a struct tls_offload_resync_async parameter directly, rather than extracting it from struct sock. This change aligns the function signatures with the upcoming tls_offload_rx_resync_async_request_cancel() helper, which will be introduced in a subsequent patch.

net/tls: support setting the maximum payload size

2025-10-27T23:13:42+00:00

During a handshake, an endpoint may specify a maximum record size limit. Currently, the kernel defaults to TLS_MAX_PAYLOAD_SIZE (16KB) for the maximum record size. Meaning that, the outgoing records from the kernel can exceed a lower size negotiated during the handshake. In such a case, the TLS endpoint must send a fatal "record_overflow" alert [1], and thus the record is discarded. Upcoming Western Digital NVMe-TCP hardware controllers implement TLS support. For these devices, supporting TLS record size negotiation is necessary because the maximum TLS record size supported by the controller is less than the default 16KB currently used by the kernel. Currently, there is no way to inform the kernel of such a limit. This patch adds support to a new setsockopt() option `TLS_TX_MAX_PAYLOAD_LEN` that allows for setting the maximum plaintext fragment size. Once set, outgoing records are no larger than the size specified. This option can be used to specify the record size limit.

tls: block decryption when a rekey is pending

2024-12-16T12:47:29+00:00

When a TLS handshake record carrying a KeyUpdate message is received, all subsequent records will be encrypted with a new key. We need to stop decrypting incoming records with the old key, and wait until userspace provides a new key. Make a note of this in the RX context just after decrypting that record, and stop recvmsg/splice calls with EKEYEXPIRED until the new key is available. key_update_pending can't be combined with the existing bitfield, because we will read it locklessly in ->poll.

bpf: Add sk_is_inet and IS_ICSK check in tls_sw_has_ctx_tx/rx

2024-11-06T19:08:56+00:00

As the introduction of the support for vsock and unix sockets in sockmap, tls_sw_has_ctx_tx/rx cannot presume the socket passed in must be IS_ICSK. vsock and af_unix sockets have vsock_sock and unix_sock instead of inet_connection_sock. For these sockets, tls_get_ctx may return an invalid pointer and cause page fault in function tls_sw_ctx_rx.

tls: fix lockless read of strp->msg_ready in ->poll

2024-04-25T15:32:37+00:00

tls_sk_poll is called without locking the socket, and needs to read strp->msg_ready (via tls_strp_msg_ready). Convert msg_ready to a bool and use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE where needed. The remaining reads are only performed when the socket is locked.
