Hey Forrest, yes we made the assumption of one device per core the application, we just default to using queue pair 0 of each crypto device. It shouldn't be to much work to modify the main() and initialize_cryptodevs() to instead allocate a cryptodev and queue pair to each set of cparams. If you are using software crypto PMDs such as the AESNI_MB PMD the simplest approach is just to create multiple devices using the EAL options. Regards Declan
