> [Anoob] This is because of a limitation in our hardware. In our hardware, it's the crypto queue pair which would be submitting to the
> ethernet queue for Tx. But in DPDK spec, the security processing is done by the ethernet PMD Tx routine alone. We manage to do this by
> sharing the crypto queue internally. The crypto queues initialized during crypto_configure() gets mapped to various ethernet ports. Because

Ok, but that breaks current behavior.
Right now in poll-mode it is possible to map traffic from N eth-devs to M crypto-devs (N>= M, by using M lcores).
Would prefer to keep this functionality in place.

Ok, then if it is for specific case (event-mode + sing-sa mode) then in create_inline_session
we probably shouldn't do it always, but only when this mode is selected.
Also wouldn't it better to reuse current  single-sa cmd-line option and logic?
I.E. whe event-mode and single-sa is selected, go though all eth-devs and for
each do create_inline_session() with for sa that corresponds to sing_sa_idx?
Then, I think create_inline_session() can be kept intact.
