[v6,06/10] ipsec: add transmit segmentation offload support

  Add support for transmit segmentation offload to inline crypto processing
mode. This offload is not supported by other offload modes, as at a
minimum it requires inline crypto for IPsec to be supported on the
network interface.

Here and everywhere:
It doesn't look nice that we have to pollute generic functions with
checking TSO specific flags all over the place.
Can we probably have a specific prepare/process function for inline+tso case?
As we do have for cpu and inline cases right now.
Or just update inline version?

Float calculations in the middle of data-path?
Just to calculate roundup?
Doesn't look good to me at all.

That's really strange - why ipsec library will set PKT_TX_TCP_SEG unconditionally?
That should be responsibility of the upper layer, I think.
In the lib we should only check was tso requested for that packet or not.
Same for UDP.

> +			m->l4_len = sizeof(struct rte_tcp_hdr);

Hmm, how do we know there are no TCP options present for that packet?
Wouldn't it be better to expect user to provide proper l4_len for such packets?

Hmm... why to change name of the function?

total_len will be overwritten unconditionally at next line below.

Another question - why it is necessary?
Is it HW specific requirment or ... ?

Wouldn't one field be enough?
uint16_t tso_mss;
And it it is zero, then tso is disabled. 
In fact, do we need it at all?
Wouldn't it be better to request user to fill mbuf->tso_segsz properly for us?

I looked at doing this but unless I copy these 2 functions I can't move

doing it for the user.

After another thought, it doesn’t look like a good approach to me:
from one side same SA can be used for multiple IP addresses,
from other side - MSS value can differ on a per connection basis.
So different TCP connections within same SA can easily have different MSS values. 
So I think we shouldn't save mss in SA at all.
Instead, we probably need to request user to fill mbuf->tso_segsz for us.
