TLS offload device may lose sync with the TCP stream if packets arrive out of order. Drivers can currently request a resync at a specific TCP sequence number. When a record is found starting at that sequence number kernel will inform the device of the corresponding record number. This requires the device to constantly scan the stream for a known pattern (constant bytes of the header) after sync is lost. This patch adds an alternative approach which is entirely under the control of the kernel. Kernel tracks records it had to fully decrypt, even though TLS socket is in TLS_HW mode. If multiple records did not have any decrypted parts - it's a pretty strong indication that the device is out of sync. We choose the min number of fully encrypted records to be 2, which should hopefully be more than will get retransmitted at a time. After kernel decides the device is out of sync it schedules a resync request. If the TCP socket is empty the resync gets performed immediately. If socket is not empty we leave the record parser to resync when next record comes. Before resync in message parser we peek at the TCP socket and don't attempt the sync if the socket already has some of the next record queued. On resync failure (encrypted data continues to flow in) we retry with exponential backoff, up to once every 128 records (with a 16k record thats at most once every 2M of data).

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.
