Much of this file should go in tls_main.c, reusing as much as possible. For example it doesn't look like the get/set sockopts have changed at all for chtls.

Agree, should common code and anything other than TLS_BASE_TX/TLS_SW_TX prot should go in vendor specific file/driver. Since, prot require redefinition for hardware the code is kept in chtls_main.c

The idea with ULP is that there is one ULP hook per protocol, not per driver.  

One thought is that apps/lib calling setsockopt pass the required ulp type [tls or chtls or xtls], this enables any HW assist to define base_prot as required and keep common code [tls_main] independent of underlying HW. 
If we are to have single TLS ULP hook [good from user point] then need a way to determine which Inline tls hw is used? System with multiple Inline TLS capable hw and differing functionality would require checks in tls_main to exercise that specific functionality/callback?
