This is a first implementation of the ovpn-dco support in OpenVPN2.
It is sent as RFC because it is not intended for final review/merge, but
rather to collect additional feedback and allow users to test it.

This implementation supports both dco for Linux and for Windows.
* For Linux, please get the ovpn-dco kernel module source at:
https://gitlab.com/openvpn/ovpn-dco
(alternatively, it is also packaged on various distributions along with
OpenVPN3-for-Linux)

* For Windows, a snapshot of the driver can be found on:
https://github.com/OpenVPN/ovpn-dco-win/actions
(note that "test signing" must be enabled on your Windows box, for the
driver to be accepted. Instructions to enable this mode are here:
https://github.com/OpenVPN/ovpn-dco-win/blob/master/README.md#installation
DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK)

In the meantime the code is still being rearranged a bit and a newer
version, including all collected feedback, will be sent later on.

Known expected changes are:
* refactoring of the networking API implementation
* tun open logic (i.e. merge it with the current logic used by other
  platforms)
* options handling

When running ./configure, if --enable-dco is specified, then
DCO_INCLUDEDIR must be defined and should point to where the ovpn-dco
header can be found.

For example, it can be configure'd like this:

./configure --enable-dco DCO_INCLUDEDIR=/path/to/include/uapi/

ovpn-dco is enabled opportunistically, which means that it is always on,
unless some conflicting option has been chosen (because ovpn-dco does not
support all known openvpn options) or if disabled explicitly.

Feel free to test/break/comment. Any input is highly appreciated.

Best Regards,

Hi,

1) 7/8 should be squashed into 6/8, because 6/8 "ovpn-dco-win:
introduce windows data-channel offload support" breaks mingw i686
build, which 7/8 "ovpn-dco-win: fix mingw i686 build" fixes.

2)  Patch 6/8 "ovpn-dco-win: introduce windows data-channel offload
support" has commented out certain msvc defines - this was needed
because back then (when patch was originally written) MSVC didn't
support lzo/pkcs11, but now everything is supported
(we build releases with MSVC) and those defines needed to be brought
back. I have fixed that in my branch:
https://github.com/lstipakov/openvpn/commit/5f09bce8a50778fca9904f916f5b1073046aee84
and this needs to be squashed into 6/8

3) At the moment this doesn't compile with GitHub actions because of
a) missing ovpn-dco-win vcpkg port and b) "generic" build system code
has a bug in regards to ovpn-dco-win support. This is the fix for
MSVC/vcpkg: https://github.com/lstipakov/openvpn/commit/96a38f88254ae6ffee1cc262a295e62edecb213a
and this is for generic build system:
https://github.com/lstipakov/openvpn/commit/3058675e63a84e93bd5612238ecbd41cca463a0a
As before they needed to be squashed into "feature" commits and not
added separately as "fixes"

All those fixes are in my repo and GitHub Actions are green:
https://github.com/lstipakov/openvpn/actions/runs/1551278629

Thanks for providing these fixes, Lev.

I have squashed all your new patches and I have also applied some minor 
corrections to make sure everything would still build.

Now GH Actions are all green again.

Thanks a lot.

Best Regards,
