Maybe could you add net...@vger.kernel.org to Cc on your next submission? It would be great if this feature would be made available in some way that user space does TLS handshaking over a socket and symmetric keys could later be installed via e.g. setsockopt and kernel offloads tls processing over this socket. Alert message handling seems problematic, though and might require some out-of-band interface.
