> In cryptography, a block cipher is a deterministic algorithm operating on fixed-
> length groups of bits, called blocks.
>
> A block cipher consists of two paired algorithms, one for encryption and the
> other for decryption. Both algorithms accept two inputs:
> an input block of size n bits and a key of size k bits; and both yield an n-bit
> output block. The decryption algorithm is defined to be the inverse function of
> the encryption.
>
> For AES standard the block size is 16 bytes.
> For AES in XTS mode, the data to be encrypted\decrypted does not have to be
> multiple of 16B size, the unit of data is called data-unit.
> The data-unit size can be any size in range [16B, 2^24B], so, in this case, a data
> stream is divided into N amount of equal data-units and must be
> encrypted\decrypted in the same data-unit resolution.
>
> For ABI compatibility reason, the size is limited to 64K (16-bit field).
> The new field dataunit_len is inserted in a struct padding hole, which is only 2
> bytes long in 32-bit build.
> It could be extended later during an ABI-breakage window.
>
> The current cryptodev API doesn't allow the user to select a specific data-unit
> length supported by the devices.
> In addition, there is no definition how the IV is detected per data-unit when
> single operation includes more than one data-unit.
>
> That causes applications to use single operation per data-unit even though all
> the data is continuous in memory what reduces datapath performance.
>
> Add a new feature flag to support multiple data-unit sizes, called
> RTE_CRYPTODEV_FF_CIPHER_MULTIPLE_DATA_UNITS.
> Add a new field in cipher capability, called dataunit_set, where the devices can
> report the range of the supported data-unit sizes.
> Add a new cipher transformation field, called dataunit_len, where the user can
> select the data-unit length for all the operations.
>
> All the new fields do not change the size of their structures, by filling some
> struct padding holes.
> They are added as exceptions in the ABI check file libabigail.abignore.
>
> Using a bitmap to report the supported data-unit sizes capability allows the
> devices to report a range simply as same as the user to read it simply. also,
> thus sizes are usually common and probably will be shared among different
> devices.

1M is irrelevant since datauinit_len is only 16 bits now.
