This permits constructing the entire TLS header in ktls_frame() rather
than ktls_seq(). This also matches the approach used by OpenSSL which
uses an incrementing nonce as the explicit IV rather than the sequence
number.

This adds the glue to allocate TLS sessions and invokes it from
the TLS enable socket option handler. This also adds some counters
for active TOE sessions.
The TOE KTLS mode is returned by getsockopt(TLSTX_TLS_MODE) when
TOE KTLS is in use on a socket, but cannot be set via setsockopt().
To simplify various checks, a TLS session now includes an explicit
'mode' member set to the value returned by TLSTX_TLS_MODE. Various
places that used to check 'sw_encrypt' against NULL to determine
software vs ifnet (NIC) TLS now check 'mode' instead.

Software Kernel TLS needs to allocate a new destination crypto
buffer when encrypting data from the page cache, so as to avoid
overwriting shared clear-text file data with encrypted data
specific to a single socket. When the data is anonymous, eg, not
tied to a file, then we can encrypt in place and avoid allocating
a new page. This fixes a bug where the existing code always
assumes the data is private, and never encrypts in place. This
results in unneeded page allocations and potentially more memory
bandwidth consumption when doing socket writes.
When the code was written at Netflix, ktls_encrypt() looked at
private sendfile flags to determine if the pages being encrypted
where part of the page cache (coming from sendfile) or
anonymous (coming from sosend). This was broken internally at
Netflix when the sendfile flags were made private, and the
M_WRITABLE() check was added. Unfortunately, M_WRITABLE() will
always be false for M_NOMAP mbufs, since one cannot just mtod()
them.
This change introduces a new flags field to the mbuf_ext_pgs
struct by stealing a byte from the tls hdr. Note that the current
header is still 2 bytes larger than the largest header we
support: AES-CBC with explicit IV. We set MBUF_PEXT_FLAG_ANON
when creating an unmapped mbuf in m_uiotombuf_nomap() (which is
the path that socket writes take), and we check for that flag in
ktls_encrypt() when looking for anon pages.

TLS 1.3 requires a few changes because 1.3 pretends to be 1.2
with a record type of application data. The "real" record type is
then included at the end of the user-supplied plaintext
data. This required adding a field to the mbuf_ext_pgs struct to
save the record type, and passing the real record type to the
sw_encrypt() ktls backend functions.

KTLS adds support for in-kernel framing and encryption of Transport
Layer Security (1.0-1.2) data on TCP sockets. KTLS only supports
offload of TLS for transmitted data. Key negotation must still be
performed in userland. Once completed, transmit session keys for a
connection are provided to the kernel via a new TCP_TXTLS_ENABLE
socket option. All subsequent data transmitted on the socket is
placed into TLS frames and encrypted using the supplied keys.
Any data written to a KTLS-enabled socket via write(2), aio_write(2),
or sendfile(2) is assumed to be application data and is encoded in TLS
frames with an application data type. Individual records can be sent
with a custom type (e.g. handshake messages) via sendmsg(2) with a new
control message (TLS_SET_RECORD_TYPE) specifying the record type.
At present, rekeying is not supported though the in-kernel framework
should support rekeying.
KTLS makes use of the recently added unmapped mbufs to store TLS
frames in the socket buffer. Each TLS frame is described by a single
ext_pgs mbuf. The ext_pgs structure contains the header of the TLS
record (and trailer for encrypted records) as well as references to
the associated TLS session.
KTLS supports two primary methods of encrypting TLS frames: software
TLS and ifnet TLS.
Software TLS marks mbufs holding socket data as not ready via
M_NOTREADY similar to sendfile(2) when TLS framing information is
added to an unmapped mbuf in ktls_frame(). ktls_enqueue() is then
called to schedule TLS frames for encryption. In the case of
sendfile_iodone() calls ktls_enqueue() instead of pru_ready() leaving
the mbufs marked M_NOTREADY until encryption is completed. For other
writes (vn_sendfile when pages are available, write(2), etc.), the
PRUS_NOTREADY is set when invoking pru_send() along with invoking
ktls_enqueue().
A pool of worker threads (the "KTLS" kernel process) encrypts TLS
frames queued via ktls_enqueue(). Each TLS frame is temporarily
mapped using the direct map and passed to a software encryption
backend to perform the actual encryption.
(Note: The use of PHYS_TO_DMAP could be replaced with sf_bufs if
someone wished to make this work on architectures without a direct
map.)
KTLS supports pluggable software encryption backends. Internally,
Netflix uses proprietary pure-software backends. This commit includes
a simple backend in a new ktls_ocf.ko module that uses the kernel's
OpenCrypto framework to provide AES-GCM encryption of TLS frames. As
a result, software TLS is now a bit of a misnomer as it can make use
of hardware crypto accelerators.
Once software encryption has finished, the TLS frame mbufs are marked
ready via pru_ready(). At this point, the encrypted data appears as
regular payload to the TCP stack stored in unmapped mbufs.
ifnet TLS permits a NIC to offload the TLS encryption and TCP
segmentation. In this mode, a new send tag type (IF_SND_TAG_TYPE_TLS)
is allocated on the interface a socket is routed over and associated
with a TLS session. TLS records for a TLS session using ifnet TLS are
not marked M_NOTREADY but are passed down the stack unencrypted. The
ip_output_send() and ip6_output_send() helper functions that apply
send tags to outbound IP packets verify that the send tag of the TLS
record matches the outbound interface. If so, the packet is tagged
with the TLS send tag and sent to the interface. The NIC device
driver must recognize packets with the TLS send tag and schedule them
for TLS encryption and TCP segmentation. If the the outbound
interface does not match the interface in the TLS send tag, the packet
is dropped. In addition, a task is scheduled to refresh the TLS send
tag for the TLS session. If a new TLS send tag cannot be allocated,
the connection is dropped. If a new TLS send tag is allocated,
however, subsequent packets will be tagged with the correct TLS send
tag. (This latter case has been tested by configuring both ports of a
Chelsio T6 in a lagg and failing over from one port to another. As
the connections migrated to the new port, new TLS send tags were
allocated for the new port and connections resumed without being
dropped.)
ifnet TLS can be enabled and disabled on supported network interfaces
via new '[-]txtls[46]' options to ifconfig(8). ifnet TLS is supported
across both vlan devices and lagg interfaces using failover, lacp with
flowid enabled, or lacp with flowid enabled.
Applications may request the current KTLS mode of a connection via a
new TCP_TXTLS_MODE socket option. They can also use this socket
option to toggle between software and ifnet TLS modes.
In addition, a testing tool is available in tools/tools/switch_tls.
This is modeled on tcpdrop and uses similar syntax. However, instead
of dropping connections, -s is used to force KTLS connections to
switch to software TLS and -i is used to switch to ifnet TLS.
Various sysctls and counters are available under the kern.ipc.tls
sysctl node. The kern.ipc.tls.enable node must be set to true to
enable KTLS (it is off by default). The use of unmapped mbufs must
also be enabled via kern.ipc.mb_use_ext_pgs to enable KTLS.
KTLS is enabled via the KERN_TLS kernel option.
This patch is the culmination of years of work by several folks
including Scott Long and Randall Stewart for the original design and
implementation; Drew Gallatin for several optimizations including the
use of ext_pgs mbufs, the M_NOTREADY mechanism for TLS records
awaiting software encryption, and pluggable software crypto backends;
and John Baldwin for modifications to support hardware TLS offload.
