Support for security operations is planned to be added in ethdev and cryptodev for the 17.11 release.
For this following changes are required. - rte_cryptodev and rte_eth_dev structures need to be added new parameter rte_security_ops which extend support for security ops to the corresponding driver. - rte_cryptodev_info and rte_ethd_dev_info need to be added with rte_security_capabilities to identify the capabilities of the corresponding driver.
