/**
* @file ktls.h
*
* The following APIs enable applications to use kernel TLS (kTLS), meaning that
* encrypting and decrypting TLS records is handled by the kernel rather than by
* the s2n-tls library.
*
* The kTLS APIs are currently considered unstable. kTLS is a relatively new
* feature with limited and volatile support from different kernels and hardware.
*
* Currently, s2n-tls supports ktls for only very limited scenarios:
* - You must be using Linux. We have not tested with other kernels.
* - Your kernel must support kTLS. For Linux, versions >4.13 should support kTLS.
* - The TLS kernel module must be enabled. While some environments enable the
* module by default, most will require you to run `sudo modprobe tls`.
* - You must negotiate TLS1.2. TLS1.3 support is blocked on kernel support for
* TLS KeyUpdate messages.
* - You must negotiate AES128-GCM, which is the most preferred cipher suite
* in the "default" security policy. Other ciphers are supported by the kernel,
* but not implemented in s2n-tls yet.

/**
* Enables sending using kTLS on a given connection.
*
* See above for the limitations on when kTLS can be enabled. Additionally,
* s2n_connection_ktls_enable_send must be called after the handshake completes.
* It may be called after some application data is sent and received without kTLS,
* but there must be no pending application data that requires flushing. If these
* requirements are not met, enabling kTLS will fail with an error.
*
* After kTLS is enabled for sending, s2n_send, s2n_sendv, and s2n_sendv_with_offset
* will use kTLS. kTLS should result in memory and CPU savings. s2n_sendfile will
* also become available.
*
* For applications using kTLS to avoid copying or allocating memory, s2n_sendv
* should be preferred over s2n_sendv_with_offset. For s2n_sendv_with_offset,
* s2n-tls may need to copy the provided iovec array to apply the offset, and may
* need to allocate memory to copy large (>16) iovec arrays.
*
* If kTLS is enabled for sending, s2n_connection_get_wire_bytes_out will always
* return 0 instead of an accurate count.
*
* @warning Due to the uncertainty around kTLS support, the signature of this
* method is likely to change before kTLS is marked as stable.
*
* @param conn A pointer to the connection.
* @returns S2N_SUCCESS if kTLS is successfully enabled. If kTlS is not successfully
* enabled, returns S2N_FAILURE but the connection may proceed without kTLS.
