This change would be an ABI breakage. So to avoid that, we are planning to
Propose a better solution compared to this patch.
We plan to add a new cryptodev op to set the event metadata. A single API
which can be used in all cases - sym/asym/security sessions.
As currently in case of sym crypto, userdata is being used for storing the event
Metadata and it is then dereferenced in the PMD which is wrong.
User data is meant only for user to use and PMD should not dereference it.
Hence a new cryptodev op can be used to set session event metadata
explicitly if event mode is enabled.
I will be sending the proposal soon. Would need your help in testing the
Intel usecases.
Regards,
Akhil
