> Subject: [PATCH v4 0/6] crypto/security session framework rework
> 
> This patchset reworks the symmetric crypto and security session data structure to use a
> single virtual/physical contiguous buffer for symmetric crypto/security session and driver
> private data.
> In addition the session data structure is now private.
> The session is represented as an opaque pointer in the application.
> 
> With the change the session is no longer supported to be accessed by multiple device
> drivers. For the same reason rte_cryptodev_sym_session_init/clear APIs are deprecated as
> rte_cryptodev_sym_session_create/free will initialize and clear the driver specific data
> field.
> 
> The change was also submitted last year during DPDK 21.11 timeframe also[1], but was not
> applied due to lack of feedback from community. Please help in getting this cleanup merged
> in this cycle.
> 
> Now the similar work was already done for asymmetric crypto.
> This patchset is rebased over current tree and fixes all the issues reported so far.
> 
> Changes in v4:
> - squashed armv8_crypto fixes.
