Hi Radu, > Update the API documentation description of rte_crypto_op field > aux_flags as to allow PMDs to define driver-specific flags.
Can you give examples of the flags that you want to add for driver specific work? I believe adding driver specific things here may not be good. May be we can discuss the specific flags and define them as common for all PMDs. > > Signed-off-by: Radu Nicolau <[email protected]> > --- > lib/cryptodev/rte_crypto.h | 4 ++++ > 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/lib/cryptodev/rte_crypto.h b/lib/cryptodev/rte_crypto.h > index dcf4a36fb2..38c8acbf4c 100644 > --- a/lib/cryptodev/rte_crypto.h > +++ b/lib/cryptodev/rte_crypto.h > @@ -116,6 +116,10 @@ struct rte_crypto_op { > * the status is RTE_CRYPTO_OP_STATUS_SUCCESS. > * In case of errors, the value of this field is > undefined. > * > + * In addition to RTE_CRYPTO_OP_AUX_FLAGS_* the > PMDs can define > + * their own optional auxiliary flags as needed, set by > the > + * application and to be used for driver-specific > purposes. > + * > * With TLS record offload > (RTE_SECURITY_PROTOCOL_TLS_RECORD), > * application may provide the extra padding required > for > the plaintext > * provided.
