[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v1 0/7] net/mlx5: IPsec offload support

[Nelio Laranjeiro]

Add support for IPsec using rte_security on ConnectX-4 Lx INNOVA NIC.

This support is still in progress on all side (RDMA-Core and Linux Kernel) it
is only enable at compilation time when the expected symbols are present in
Verbs, even in such situation static assert are present to assure the offload
request can be understood by the NIC (those values may change once patches in
RDMA-Core are up-streamed).

Minor changes expected in v2:

 - Rebased on top of new offload API.
 - Eventual modifications to match upstream RDMA-Core and Linux Kernel
 - RSS on SPI.
 - ESN support.
 - Documentation update to explain how to use the INNOVA NIC.
