SOCK_ALG exists to export crypto algorithms to user-space. So if we decided to support TLS as an algorithm then I guess this makes sense. However, I must say that it wouldn't have been my first pick. I'd imagine a TLS socket to look more like a TCP socket, or perhaps a KCM socket as proposed by Tom.
