Proposing following two new fields for IPsec inner checksum configuration in the structure ``rte_security_ipsec_sa_options``. uint32_t ip_csum_enable : 1; uint32_t l4_csum_enable : 1;
With these config options, per SA, application can specify if the inner checksum(compute/verify) to be offloaded to the security device. https://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2021-June/212977.html Signed-off-by: Archana Muniganti <march...@marvell.com> --- doc/guides/rel_notes/deprecation.rst | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/doc/guides/rel_notes/deprecation.rst b/doc/guides/rel_notes/deprecation.rst index 9584d6bfd7..da65ae68be 100644 --- a/doc/guides/rel_notes/deprecation.rst +++ b/doc/guides/rel_notes/deprecation.rst @@ -141,6 +141,10 @@ Deprecation Notices in "rte_sched.h".
