SNOW 3G Crypto Poll Mode Driver
===============================
The SNOW 3G PMD (**librte_pmd_snow3g**) provides poll mode crypto driver
support for utilizing Intel Libsso library, which implements F8 and F9 functions
for SNOW 3G UEA2 cipher and UIA2 hash algorithms.
Features
--------
SNOW 3G PMD has support for:
Cipher algorithm:
* RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_CIPHER_SNOW3G_UEA2
Authentication algorithm:
* RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_AUTH_SNOW3G_UIA2
Limitations
-----------
* Chained mbufs are not supported.
* Snow3g(UIA2) supported only if hash offset field is byte-aligned.
* In-place bit-level operations for Snow3g(UEA2) are not supported
(if length and/or offset of data to be ciphered is not byte-aligned).
Installation
------------
To build DPDK with the KASUMI_PMD the user is required to download
the export controlled ``libsso_snow3g`` library, by requesting it from
`<https://networkbuilders.intel.com/network-technologies/dpdk>`_.
Once approval has been granted, the user needs to log in
`<https://networkbuilders.intel.com/dpdklogin>`_
and click on "Snow3G Bit Stream crypto library" link, to download the library.
After downloading the library, the user needs to unpack and compile it
on their system before building DPDK::
make snow3G
Initialization
--------------
In order to enable this virtual crypto PMD, user must:
* Export the environmental variable LIBSSO_SNOW3G_PATH with the path where
the library was extracted (snow3g folder).
* Build the LIBSSO_SNOW3G library (explained in Installation section).
* Set CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_SNOW3G=y in config/common_base.
To use the PMD in an application, user must:
* Call rte_eal_vdev_init("cryptodev_snow3g_pmd") within the application.
* Use --vdev="cryptodev_snow3g_pmd" in the EAL options, which will call rte_eal_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 -c 40 -n 4 --vdev="cryptodev_snow3g_pmd,socket_id=1,max_nb_sessions=128"
