doc: announce ABI change for cryptodev config
Add new field ff_disable in rte_cryptodev_config. This enables
applications to control the features enabled on the crypto device.
Proposed new layout:
/** Crypto device configuration structure */
struct rte_cryptodev_config {
int socket_id; /**< Socket to allocate resources on */
uint16_t nb_queue_pairs;
/**< Number of queue pairs to configure on device */
+ uint64_t ff_disable;
+ /**< Feature flags to be disabled. Only the following features are
+ * allowed to be disabled,
+ * - RTE_CRYPTODEV_FF_SYMMETRIC_CRYPTO
+ * - RTE_CRYPTODEV_FF_ASYMMETRIC_CRYPTO
+ * - RTE_CRYTPODEV_FF_SECURITY
+ */
};
For eth devices, rte_eth_conf.rx_mode.offloads and
rte_eth_conf.tx_mode.offloads fields are used by applications to
control the offloads enabled on the eth device. This proposal adds a
similar ability for the crypto device.
