[Swan-dev] [libreswan RFC 2/3] pluto, whack: Add nic-offload 'auto' mode

Hi Ilan,
Thanks for the patches.

I reviewed the patches. May be Hugh can clarify the first one. I wonder the 
comment following that line need to be fix as well.

For the second and the third patch here is my suggestion. 

no|yes|auto is probably better keywords in the libreswan context.
Libreswan do not use first letter capitalizing as you proposed.

I am not sure about making auto default. Paul would ethtool detection work 
on RHEL 6.x?  Ilan have tested this on RHEL/CentOS 6.x, without a Mellanox 
NIC?

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] pluto: nic-offload configuration from boolean to 3-choice
 enum

The behavior is:
	no - do not attempt nic offload
	yes - only nic offload, and fail if it fails
        auto - auto-detect nic capability. attempt nic-offload if
             supported, and fallback to non-offload if it fails.

    Default is Auto.
