  Description     : TLS handshake utilities for in-kernel TLS consumers

In-kernel TLS consumers need a mechanism to perform TLS handshakes on
a connected socket to negotiate TLS session parameters that can then
be programmed into the kernel's TLS record protocol engine.

This package of software provides a TLS handshake user agent that
listens for kernel requests and then materializes a user space socket
endpoint on which to perform these handshakes. The resulting
negotiated session parameters are passed back to the kernel via
standard kTLS socket options.

This will be maintained by the kernel team.
