tcp: ULP infrastructure
Add the infrustructure for attaching Upper Layer Protocols (ULPs) over TCP sockets. Based on a similar infrastructure in tcp_cong. The idea is that any ULP can add its own logic by changing the TCP proto_ops structure to its own methods. Example usage: setsockopt(sock, SOL_TCP, TCP_ULP, "tls", sizeof("tls")); modules will call: tcp_register_ulp(&tcp_tls_ulp_ops); to register/unregister their ulp, with an init function and name. A list of registered ulps will be returned by tcp_get_available_ulp, which is hooked up to /proc. Example: $ cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_available_ulp tls There is currently no functionality to remove or chain ULPs, but it should be possible to add these in the future if needed.
