Depending on the library version, it might +require a minimum NASM version (e.g. v0.54 requires at least NASM 2.14). + +NASM is packaged for different OS. However, on some OS the version is too old, +so a manual installation is required. In that case, NASM can be downloaded from +`NASM website `_. +Once it is downloaded, extract it and follow these steps: + +.. code-block:: console + + ./configure + make + make install + +.. note:: + + Compilation of the Multi-Buffer library is broken when GCC < 5.0, if library <= v0.53. + If a lower GCC version than 5.0, the workaround proposed by the following link + should be used: ``_. + +As a reference, the following table shows a mapping between the past DPDK versions +and the external crypto libraries supported by them: + +.. _table_snow3g_versions: + +.. table:: DPDK and external crypto library version compatibility + + ============= ================================ + DPDK version Crypto library version + ============= ================================ + 16.04 - 19.11 LibSSO SNOW3G + 20.02+ Multi-buffer library 0.53 - 0.54 + ============= ================================ + + +Initialization +-------------- + +In order to enable this virtual crypto PMD, user must: + +* Build the multi buffer library (explained in Installation section). + +* Build DPDK as follows: + +.. code-block:: console + + make config T=x86_64-native-linux-gcc + sed -i 's,\(CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_SNOW3G\)=n,\1=y,' build/.config + make + +To use the PMD in an application, user must: + +* Call rte_vdev_init("crypto_snow3g") within the application. + +* Use --vdev="crypto_snow3g" in the EAL options, which will call rte_vdev_init() internally. + +The following parameters (all optional) can be provided in the previous two calls: + +* socket_id: Specify the socket where the memory for the device is going to be allocated + (by default, socket_id will be the socket where the core that is creating the PMD is running on). + +* max_nb_queue_pairs: Specify the maximum number of queue pairs in the device (8 by default). + +* max_nb_sessions: Specify the maximum number of sessions that can be created (2048 by default). + +Example: + +.. code-block:: console + + ./l2fwd-crypto -l 1 -n 4 --vdev="crypto_snow3g,socket_id=0,max_nb_sessions=128" \ + -- -p 1 --cdev SW --chain CIPHER_ONLY --cipher_algo "snow3g-uea2" -- cgit v1.2.3
