Improvements to Inline inbound and outbound processing fast path routines rte_security_set_pkt_metadata() and rte_security_get_userdata() to make them inline functions and also provide mechanism for drivers to support fast userdata and metadata access instead of driver specific per-pkt function callbacks.
This series updates requirements of mbuf fields to be updated for outbound inline processing. Nithin Dabilpuram (4): security: enforce semantics for Tx inline processing security: add option for faster udata or mdata access examples/ipsec-secgw: update event mode inline path doc: remove deprecation notice for security fast path change v4: - Removed entry from deprecation notice. - Fixed issue with rte_security_set_pkt_metadata() to pass instance instead of device ptr to non-inline C function. v3: - Rebased and fixed compilation issue with rte_security_get_userdata() on 32-bit platform - Updated l2_len on patch 3/3 only for outbound. v2: - Remove restrictions on rte_security_set_pkt_metadata() w.r.t pkt content - Add inline functions for rte_security_set_pkt_metadata() and rte_security_get_userdata() and also faster mdata, udata access via patch 2/3 doc/guides/nics/features.rst | 2 ++ doc/guides/rel_notes/deprecation.rst | 4 --- examples/ipsec-secgw/ipsec-secgw.c | 2 ++ examples/ipsec-secgw/ipsec_worker.c | 41 +++++++++++++++++++----------- lib/mbuf/rte_mbuf_core.h | 2 ++ lib/security/rte_security.c | 8 +++--- lib/security/rte_security.h | 48 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- lib/security/version.map | 2 ++ 8 files changed, 83 insertions(+), 26 deletions(-) -- 2.8.4
