Let the TLS TX recycle pool be more flexible in size, by continuously and dynamically allocating and releasing HW resources in response to changes in the connections rate and load. Allocate and release pool entries in bulks (16). Use a workqueue to release/allocate in the background. Allocate a new bulk when the pool size goes lower than the low threshold (1K). Symmetric operation is done when the pool size gets greater than the upper threshold (4K). Every idle pool entry holds: 1 TIS, 1 DEK (HW resources), in addition to ~100 bytes in host memory. Start with an empty pool to minimize memory and HW resources waste for non-TLS users that have the device-offload TLS enabled. Upon a new request, in case the pool is empty, do not wait for a whole bulk allocation to complete. Instead, trigger an instant allocation of a single resource to reduce latency.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
