Summary

This merges upstream patches from OpenSSL's master branch to add
KTLS infrastructure for TLS 1.0-1.3 including both RX and TX
offload and SSL_sendfile support on both Linux and FreeBSD.

Note that TLS 1.3 only supports TX offload.

A new WITH/WITHOUT_KTLS determines if OpenSSL is built with KTLS
support. It defaults to enabled.

Test Plan
  • did simple testing of openssl s_server with TLS 1.2 with an AES-GCM cipher suite and both TX and RX were offloaded

I have not yet regenerated the affected manual pages as I wasn't sure how to do that (the notes in FreeBSD-upgrade in the vendor tree say to regen, but don't give a command). I also haven't regenerated openssl.conf.h.in though I don't think it is affected? We would want to regen it with 'enable-ktls' passed to OpenSSL's configure script though. If we wanted the KTLS bits to be under an option (e.g. MK_KTLS) then we could have OPENSSL_NO_KTLS in openssl.conf.h.in be dependent on that option similar to the way NO_ASM is handled in openssl.conf.h.in I believe.

Note that we (Netflix) have been running this patch in evolving state since 2017 in production.

  • Pull in fixes from jkim including WITH/WITHOUT_OPENSSL_KTLS and manpages.

We might consider only enabling this by default on amd64 to match what we've done with 'options KERN_TLS' in GENERIC.

I will probably split this up into a few commits. I will certainly regen src.conf.5 as a separate commit. I will probably also do the manpage regen as a separate commit.
