==================================
-The AES-NI GCM PMD (**librte_pmd_aesni_gcm**) provides poll mode crypto driver
+The AES-NI GCM PMD (**librte_crypto_aesni_gcm**) provides poll mode crypto driver
support for utilizing Intel multi buffer library (see AES-NI Multi-buffer PMD documentation
to learn more about it, including installation).
-----------
* In out-of-place operations, chained destination mbufs are not supported.
-* Chained mbufs are only supported by RTE_CRYPTO_AEAD_AES_GCM algorithm,
- not RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_AES_GMAC.
* Cipher only is not supported.
To build DPDK with the AESNI_GCM_PMD the user is required to download the multi-buffer
library from `here <https://github.com/01org/intel-ipsec-mb>`_
and compile it on their user system before building DPDK.
-The latest version of the library supported by this PMD is v0.54, which
-can be downloaded in `<https://github.com/01org/intel-ipsec-mb/archive/v0.54.zip>`_.
+The latest version of the library supported by this PMD is v0.55, which
+can be downloaded in `<https://github.com/01org/intel-ipsec-mb/archive/v0.55.zip>`_.

============= ================================
* Build the multi buffer library (explained in Installation section).
-* Set CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_AESNI_GCM=y in config/common_base.
-
To use the PMD in an application, user must:
* Call rte_vdev_init("crypto_aesni_gcm") within the application.
