Linux kernel source tree

Using precalculated traffic keys, sign TCP segments as prescribed by RFC5925. Per RFC, TCP header options are included in sign calculation: "The TCP header, by default including options, and where the TCP checksum and TCP-AO MAC fields are set to zero, all in network- byte order." (5.1.3) tcp_ao_hash_header() has exclude_options parameter to optionally exclude TCP header from hash calculation, as described in RFC5925 (9.1), this is needed for interaction with middleboxes that may change "some TCP options". This is wired up to AO key flags and setsockopt() later. Similarly to TCP-MD5 hash TCP segment fragments. From this moment a user can start sending TCP-AO signed segments with one of crypto ahash algorithms from supported by Linux kernel. It can have a user-specified MAC length, to either save TCP option header space or provide higher protection using a longer signature. The inbound segments are not yet verified, TCP-AO option is ignored and they are accepted.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
