Ursula Braun c5c1cc9c52 smc: add SMC rendezvous protocol
The SMC protocol [1] uses a rendezvous protocol to negotiate SMC
capability between peers. The current Linux implementation does not yet
use this rendezvous protocol and, thus, is not compliant to RFC7609 and
incompatible with other SMC implementations like in zOS.
This patch adds support for the SMC rendezvous protocol. It uses a new
TCP experimental option. With this option, SMC capabilities are
exchanged between the peers during the TCP three way handshake.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
