> Hi,
>  This is Heng from Ericsson. We are now developing a platform based on dpdk. 
> The platform usually
> processes the ipsec packets encapsulating udp packets.
>   You know, calculating udp checksum is always time consuming. We found a 
> hardware solution where
> our crypto device can calculate the udp checksum during encryption.
>  Unfortunately, in DPDK, I didn't find any feature flag for it. Also the API 
> rte_cryptodev_configure
> doesn't allow us to pass any offload flag to the crypto device.
>  I think this could be a common case to calculate something, like checksums,
