Hi-

Here is v9 of a series to add generic support for transport layer
security handshake on behalf of kernel socket consumers (user space
consumers use a security library directly, of course). A summary of
the purpose of these patches is archived here:

https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/1DE06BB1-6BA9-4DB4-B2AA-07DE532963D6@oracle.com/

I'd like you to consider this series for v6.4.

The full patch set to support SunRPC with TLSv1.3 is available in
the topic-rpc-with-tls-upcall branch here, based on net-next/main:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cel/linux.git

This patch set includes support for in-transit confidentiality and
peer authentication for both the Linux NFS client and server.

A user space handshake agent for TLSv1.3 to go along with the kernel
patches is available in the "main" branch here:

Changes since v8:
- Addressed Jakub's v8 review comments
- Fixed build problems with the new unit tests
- Addressed crashes in some corner case

Major changes since v7:
- Addressed Paolo's v7 review comments
- Added initial set of Kunit tests for the handshake API
- Included an NFS server patch to add new TLS_RECORD_TYPE values

Major changes since v6:
- YAML spec and generated artifacts are now under dual license
- Addressed Jakub's v6 review comments
- Implemented a memory-sensitive limit on the number of pending
 handshake requests
- Implemented upcall support for multiple peer identities

Major changes since v5:
- Added a "timeout" attribute to the handshake netlink protocol
- Removed the GnuTLS-specific "priorities" attribute
- Added support for keyrings to restrict access to keys
- Simplified the kernel consumer TLS handshake API
- The handshake netlink protocol can handle multiple peer IDs or
 certificates in the ACCEPT and DONE operations, though the
 implementation does not yet support it.

Major changes since v4:
- Rebased onto net-next/main
- Replaced req reference counting with ->sk_destruct
- CMD_ACCEPT now does the equivalent of a dup(2) rather than an
 accept(2)
- CMD_DONE no longer closes the user space socket endpoint
- handshake_req_cancel is now tested and working
- Added a YAML specification for the netlink upcall protocol, and
 simplified the protocol to fit the YAML schema
- Added an initial set of tracepoints

Changes since v3:
- Converted all netlink code to use Generic Netlink
- Reworked handshake request lifetime logic throughout
- Global pending list is now per-net
- On completion, return the remote's identity to the consumer

Changes since v2:
- PF_HANDSHAKE replaced with NETLINK_HANDSHAKE
- Replaced listen(2) / poll(2) with a multicast notification service
- Replaced accept(2) with a netlink operation that can return an
 open fd and handshake parameters
- Replaced close(2) with a netlink operation that can take arguments

Changes since RFC:
- Generic upcall support split away from kTLS
- Added support for TLS ServerHello
- Documentation has been temporarily removed while API churns
