4OpenSSL Crypto Poll Mode Driver
5===============================
6
7This code provides the initial implementation of the openssl poll mode
8driver. All cryptography operations are using Openssl library crypto API.
9Each algorithm uses EVP interface from openssl API - which is recommended
10by Openssl maintainers.

59Installation
60------------
61
62To compile the OpenSSL PMD the openssl library must be installed. It will
63then be picked up by the Meson/Ninja build system.
64
65To ensure that you have the latest security fixes it is recommended that you
66use version 1.1.1g or newer.
67
68* 1.1.1g, 2020-Apr-21. https://www.openssl.org/source/
69
70Initialization
71--------------
72
73User can use app/test application to check how to use this PMD and to verify
74crypto processing.
75
76Test name is cryptodev_openssl_autotest.
77For asymmetric crypto operations testing, run cryptodev_openssl_asym_autotest.
78
79To verify real traffic l2fwd-crypto example can be used with this command:
80
81.. code-block:: console
82
83	sudo ./<build_dir>/examples/dpdk-l2fwd-crypto -l 0-1 -n 4 --vdev "crypto_openssl"
84	--vdev "crypto_openssl"-- -p 0x3 --chain CIPHER_HASH
85	--cipher_op ENCRYPT --cipher_algo AES_CBC
86	--cipher_key 00:01:02:03:04:05:06:07:08:09:0a:0b:0c:0d:0e:0f
87	--iv 00:01:02:03:04:05:06:07:08:09:0a:0b:0c:0d:0e:ff
88	--auth_op GENERATE --auth_algo SHA1_HMAC
89	--auth_key 11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11
90	:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11
