+* vhost: The function ``rte_vhost_crypto_create`` will accept a new parameter
+ to specify rte_mempool for asymmetric crypto session. The function
+ ``rte_vhost_crypto_finalize_requests`` will accept two new parameters,
+ where the first one is to specify vhost device id and other one is to specify
+ the virtio queue index. These two modifications are required to support
+ asymmetric crypto operation in vhost crypto and will break ABI.
