4 Marvell NITROX Crypto Poll Mode Driver
5 ======================================
7 The Nitrox crypto poll mode driver provides support for offloading
8 cryptographic operations to the NITROX V security processor. Detailed
9 information about the NITROX V security processor can be obtained here:
11 * https://www.marvell.com/security-solutions/nitrox-security-processors/nitrox-v/
16 Nitrox crypto PMD has support for:
20 * ``RTE_CRYPTO_CIPHER_AES_CBC``
21 * ``RTE_CRYPTO_CIPHER_3DES_CBC``
25 * ``RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_SHA1_HMAC``
26 * ``RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_SHA224_HMAC``
27 * ``RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_SHA256_HMAC``
29 Supported AEAD algorithms:
31 * ``RTE_CRYPTO_AEAD_AES_GCM``
36 * Session-less APIs are not supported.
42 Nitrox crypto PMD depend on Nitrox kernel PF driver being installed on the
43 platform. Nitrox PF driver is required to create VF devices which will
44 be used by the PMD. Each VF device can enable one cryptodev PMD.
46 Nitrox kernel PF driver is available as part of CNN55XX-Driver SDK. The SDK
47 and it's installation instructions can be obtained from:
