Hi Gowri,

Thanks for the change, but I think there is an issue with the locking,

Until virtio avail ring is initialized (by VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ADDR),
worker thread should not try to fetch crypto op, which would lead to

You should only unlock at the end of the function, otherwise there is not much protection.

Ha, and also you should be able to remove: __rte_no_thread_safety_analysis /* FIXME: requires iotlb_lock? */
in vhost_crypto_process_one_req() once implemented.

Regards,
Maxime
