great to see more crypto drivers coming into DPDK, thanks. Question: do you know if this code would have any export compliance implications for DPDK - or for those repackaging DPDK? Up till now, all the crypto code used by DPDK was actually packaged in separate libraries that were re-used, meaning that DPDK didn't contain any crypto algorithms itself. Regards, /Bruce
