+* cryptodev: The structure ``rte_crypto_sym_vec`` would be updated to add

+  This is required for security cases like IPsec and PDCP encryption offload
+  to know how much additional memory space is available in buffer other than
+  data length so that driver/HW can write expanded size data after encryption.
+  This change is targeted for DPDK 21.11.

 * cryptodev: The interface between library and drivers will be marked
   as internal in DPDK 21.11.
 
+* security: Hide structure ``rte_security_session`` and expose an opaque
