TAILQ_HEAD ( rte_cryptodev_cb_list  ,
rte_cryptodev_callback   
)

Structure to keep track of registered callbacks

static uint16_t rte_cryptodev_dequeue_burst ( uint8_t  dev_id,
uint16_t  qp_id,
struct rte_mbuf **  pkts,
uint16_t  nb_pkts 
)
inlinestatic

Dequeue a burst of processed packets from a queue of the crypto device. The dequeued packets are stored in rte_mbuf structures whose pointers are supplied in the pkts array.

The rte_crypto_dequeue_burst() function returns the number of packets actually dequeued, which is the number of rte_mbuf data structures effectively supplied into the pkts array.

A return value equal to nb_pkts indicates that the queue contained at least rx_pkts packets, and this is likely to signify that other received packets remain in the input queue. Applications implementing a "retrieve as much received packets as possible" policy can check this specific case and keep invoking the rte_crypto_dequeue_burst() function until a value less than nb_pkts is returned.

The rte_crypto_dequeue_burst() function does not provide any error notification to avoid the corresponding overhead.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the device.
qp_idThe index of the queue pair from which to retrieve processed packets. The value must be in the range [0, nb_queue_pair - 1] previously supplied to rte_cryptodev_configure().
pktsThe address of an array of pointers to rte_mbuf structures that must be large enough to store nb_pkts pointers in it.
nb_pktsThe maximum number of packets to dequeue.
Returns
  • The number of packets actually dequeued, which is the number of pointers to rte_mbuf structures effectively supplied to the pkts array.
Examples:
l2fwd-crypto/main.c.

Definition at line 555 of file rte_cryptodev.h.

static uint16_t rte_cryptodev_enqueue_burst ( uint8_t  dev_id,
uint16_t  qp_id,
struct rte_mbuf **  pkts,
uint16_t  nb_pkts 
)
inlinestatic

Enqueue a burst of packets for processing on a crypto device.

The rte_crypto_enqueue_burst() function is invoked to place packets on the queue queue_id of the device designated by its dev_id.

The nb_pkts parameter is the number of packets to process which are supplied in the pkts array of rte_mbuf structures.

The rte_crypto_enqueue_burst() function returns the number of packets it actually sent. A return value equal to nb_pkts means that all packets have been sent.

Each mbuf in the pkts array must have a valid rte_mbuf_offload structure attached which contains a valid crypto operation.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the device.
qp_idThe index of the queue pair which packets are to be enqueued for processing. The value must be in the range [0, nb_queue_pairs - 1] previously supplied to rte_cryptodev_configure.
pktsThe address of an array of nb_pkts pointers to rte_mbuf structures which contain the output packets.
nb_pktsThe number of packets to transmit.
Returns
The number of packets actually enqueued on the crypto device. The return value can be less than the value of the nb_pkts parameter when the crypto devices queue is full or has been filled up. The number of packets is 0 if the device hasn't been started.
Examples:
l2fwd-crypto/main.c.

Definition at line 600 of file rte_cryptodev.h.

struct rte_cryptodev_session* rte_cryptodev_session_create ( uint8_t  dev_id,
struct rte_crypto_xform xform 
)
read

Initialise a session for symmetric cryptographic operations.

This function is used by the client to initialize immutable parameters of symmetric cryptographic operation. To perform the operation the rte_cryptodev_enqueue_burst function is used. Each mbuf should contain a reference to the session pointer returned from this function contained within it's crypto_op if a session-based operation is being provisioned. Memory to contain the session information is allocated from within mempool managed by the cryptodev.

The rte_cryptodev_session_free must be called to free allocated memory when the session is no longer required.

Parameters
dev_idThe device identifier.
xformCrypto transform chain.
Returns
Pointer to the created session or NULL
Examples:
l2fwd-crypto/main.c.
struct rte_cryptodev_session* rte_cryptodev_session_free ( uint8_t  dev_id,
struct rte_cryptodev_session *  session 
)
read

Free the memory associated with a previously allocated session.

Parameters
dev_idThe device identifier.
sessionSession pointer previously allocated by rte_cryptodev_session_create.
Returns
NULL on successful freeing of session. Session pointer on failure to free session.
