+tcp_fastopen_key - list of comma separated 32-digit hexadecimal INTEGERs
+ The list consists of a primary key and an optional backup key. The
+ primary key is used for both creating and validating cookies, while the
+ optional backup key is only used for validating cookies. The purpose of
+ the backup key is to maximize TFO validation when keys are rotated.
+
+ A randomly chosen primary key may be configured by the kernel if
+ the tcp_fastopen sysctl is set to 0x400 (see above), or if the
+ TCP_FASTOPEN setsockopt() optname is set and a key has not been
+ previously configured via sysctl. If keys are configured via
+ setsockopt() by using the TCP_FASTOPEN_KEY optname, then those
+ per-socket keys will be used instead of any keys that are specified via
+ sysctl.
+
+ A key is specified as 4 8-digit hexadecimal integers which are separated
+ by a '-' as: xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx. Leading zeros may be
+ omitted. A primary and a backup key may be specified by separating them
+ by a comma. If only one key is specified, it becomes the primary key and
+ any previously configured backup keys are removed.
