Yes, an experimental IPsec offload support is added in DPDK 17.11.
It is called rte_security:

The hardware support will probably be improved in DPDK 18.02.

[dpdk-users] scatter send

[Marios-Evaggelos Kogias]

Hello everyone,

I am new to DPDK and I am trying to understand if it's possible to do a
scatter send, namely use a scatter gather list of pointers to user memory
instead of copying the payload in the mbuf. This is a feature supported by
NIC drivers but I can't find a way to use it with DPDK. Is it exposed?

Any help is more than welcome.

Thanks in advance,
Marios

Does the DPDK  support HW IPsec offload ? can DPDK configure the NIC/Network 
adapter to ipsec a specific flow ?
Thank You
