Subject: [PATCH v2] doc: announce ABI change for cryptodev and ethdev
Date: Tue, 8 Aug 2017 12:39:43 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170808070943.24415-1-akhil.goyal@nxp.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170803153211.23073-1-akhil.goyal@nxp.com>

Support for security operations is planned to be added
in ethdev and cryptodev for the 17.11 release.

For this following changes are required.
- rte_cryptodev and rte_eth_dev structures need to be added
new parameter rte_security_ops which extend support for
security ops to the corresponding driver.
- rte_cryptodev_info and rte_eth_dev_info need to be added
with rte_security_capabilities to identify the capabilities of
the corresponding driver.
- rte_security_session needs to be added in the union inside
structure rte_crypto_sym_op to decide between various types of
sessions

changes in v2:
Added one more ABI change wrt to security session,
This patch is not split into 3 patches as these all will be implemented
simultaneously with rte_security support.
