Yes, it absolutely has application level semantics, that's its purpose: "Modifications to take advantage of SYNACK payloads would then require changes to the application level protocol ... Because of this, we also describe a TCP option that lets the application layer on both sides ... agree to use an alternative protocol which takes advantage of it." > Well, this is just an unsupported claim in the presentation, so I have > no idea what the underlying data is.

But I can say that, had I suggested an opportunistic system that required an extra round trip, various teams here (at Google) would have (rightfully) laughed at me. I know that sucks as an argument, but I can't release company data. I'm a bit stuck here sadly. >> (2) is also a concern: simply put, users type http by habit. > > And the servers could say "use TLS next time" and the browsers could > remember that. And that's not a bad idea either. If I get around to it I might sketch something like that out and see what the Mozilla folks think of it. > But the client can techncially start sending data as soon as it has > sent Finished, so that leaves us with: > > > ClientHello --------> > ServerHello > Certificate* > ServerKeyExchange* > CertificateRequest* > <-------- ServerHelloDone > Certificate* > ClientKeyExchange > CertificateVerify* > [ChangeCipherSpec] > Finished --------> > Application Data > > Which is the same number of messages as in your example.

At which point, I think we have basically the same scheme, but with different names! ClientHello (1 bit) ----> <----- ServerHello, ServerHelloDone ClientRandom, Finished, Application Data -----> For implementation reasons I'm reducing the "I speak package 9" to a single bit. The sockets API makes it very painful to have applications process each SYN frame. One could imagine giving the kernel a list of different payloads to send in the case of different options in the SYN, but I didn't for complexity reasons. The major advantage would be that we could more easily recover from primitive compromise but, as I've outlined in a previous email, the tagged nature of the payload makes it doable anyway. We can't fit any certificates in the ServerHello and (unless we're moving this into the kernel) the key agreement value has to be constant. So we define a new cipher spec for a Diffie-Hellman function that works in the face of constant public values and is very fast (curve25519). I, indeed, put the client's random in the first real message. I could support client certificates with the tagged structure, currently I don't. So, given the space constraints, it's largely isomorphic, right? If there's anything important that I've missed please put me straight.
