Hi Honnappa, As per the comments received in http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/60499/ http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/61013/ Marvell will no longer host the external library for the PMD. We can have 2 possible solutions to this situation 1. Arm host it somewhere and let people contribute to that. 2. Integrate it inside DPDK repo. [Honnappa] I don't have any issues with the 2nd option. Please send your suggestions/concerns. Since this library provide huge performance improvements over conventional Openssl. We should not remove it altogether. We should find a way to host it somewhere. Regards, Akhil
