dereferences.
+When the offloaded connection is destroyed the core calls
+the :c:member:`tls_dev_del` callback so the driver can release per-direction
+state:
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ void (*tls_dev_del)(struct net_device *netdev,
+ struct tls_context *ctx,
+ enum tls_offload_ctx_dir direction);
+
+``tls_dev_del`` is mandatory whenever ``tls_dev_add`` is provided.
+
+The third TLS device callback is :c:member:`tls_dev_resync`, called by the core
+to synchronize the TCP stream with the record boundaries:
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ int (*tls_dev_resync)(struct net_device *netdev,
+ struct sock *sk, u32 seq, u8 *rcd_sn,
+ enum tls_offload_ctx_dir direction);
+
+See the `Resync handling`_ section for details.
