Detailed Description

EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice

RTE Security Common Definitions

Definition in file rte_security.h.

Macro Definition Documentation

#define RTE_SECURITY_TX_OLOAD_NEED_MDATA   0x00000001

HW needs metadata update, see rte_security_set_pkt_metadata().

Examples:
examples/ipsec-secgw/ipsec.c.

Definition at line 468 of file rte_security.h.

#define RTE_SECURITY_TX_HW_TRAILER_OFFLOAD   0x00000002

HW constructs trailer of packets Transmitted packets will have the trailer added to them by hardawre. The next protocol field will be based on the mbuf->inner_esp_next_proto field.

Examples:
examples/ipsec-secgw/esp.c.

Definition at line 472 of file rte_security.h.

#define RTE_SECURITY_RX_HW_TRAILER_OFFLOAD   0x00010000

HW removes trailer of packets Received packets have no trailer, the next protocol field is supplied in the mbuf->inner_esp_next_proto field. Inner packet is not modified.

Examples:
examples/ipsec-secgw/esp.c.

Definition at line 478 of file rte_security.h.

Function Documentation

struct rte_security_session* rte_security_session_create ( struct rte_security_ctx instance,
struct rte_security_session_conf conf,
struct rte_mempool mp 
)

Create security session as specified by the session configuration

Parameters
instancesecurity instance
confsession configuration parameters
mpmempool to allocate session objects from
Returns
  • On success, pointer to session
  • On failure, NULL
Examples:
examples/ipsec-secgw/ipsec.c.
int rte_security_session_update ( struct rte_security_ctx instance,
struct rte_security_session *  sess,
struct rte_security_session_conf conf 
)

Update security session as specified by the session configuration

Parameters
instancesecurity instance
sesssession to update parameters
confupdate configuration parameters
Returns
  • On success returns 0
  • On failure return errno
int rte_security_session_destroy ( struct rte_security_ctx instance,
struct rte_security_session *  sess 
)

Free security session header and the session private data and return it to its original mempool.

Parameters
instancesecurity instance
sesssecurity session to freed
Returns
  • 0 if successful.
  • -EINVAL if session is NULL.
  • -EBUSY if not all device private data has been freed.
int rte_security_set_pkt_metadata ( struct rte_security_ctx instance,

struct rte_security_session *  sess 
)
inlinestatic

Attach a session to a symmetric crypto operation

Parameters
