Subject: [Toybox] [RFC] ktls is in 4.13.

The kernel just merged "ssl renamed after thread local storage" support:

  vpaper: https://netdevconf.org/1.2/papers/ktls.pdf
  sample code: https://github.com/ktls/af_ktls

It's basic https plumbing in the kernel, but doesn't do the handshake or
renegotiation. What I'm wondering is would this be a better thing to try
to plug into than the openssl command line utility?

Worth bothering with?

Rob

And the security issues if it's within toybox rather than an external via openssl, especially as a lot of us run as root so we can 'play'?

ps do you prefer top-posts in-posts or bottom-posts for this sort of thing please rob?
