Detailed Description

RTE Event crypto adapter

Eventdev library provides couple of adapters to bridge between various components for providing new event source. The event crypto adapter is one of those adapters which is intended to bridge between event devices and crypto devices.

The crypto adapter adds support to enqueue/dequeue crypto operations to/ from event device. The packet flow between crypto device and the event device can be accomplished using both SW and HW based transfer mechanisms. The adapter uses an EAL service core function for SW based packet transfer and uses the eventdev PMD functions to configure HW based packet transfer between the crypto device and the event device.

The application can choose to submit a crypto operation directly to crypto device or send it to the crypto adapter via eventdev based on RTE_EVENT_CRYPTO_ADAPTER_CAP_INTERNAL_PORT_OP_FWD capability. The first mode is known as the event new(RTE_EVENT_CRYPTO_ADAPTER_OP_NEW) mode and the second as the event forward(RTE_EVENT_CRYPTO_ADAPTER_OP_FORWARD) mode. The choice of mode can be specified while creating the adapter. In the former mode, it is an application responsibility to enable ingress packet ordering. In the latter mode, it is the adapter responsibility to enable the ingress packet ordering.

    [1] Application dequeues events from the previous stage.
    [2] Application prepares the crypto operations.
    [3] Crypto operations are submitted to cryptodev by application.

    [5] Crypto adapter enqueues events to the eventdev.
    [6] Application dequeues from eventdev and prepare for further
        processing.

In the RTE_EVENT_CRYPTO_ADAPTER_OP_NEW mode, application submits crypto operations directly to crypto device. The adapter then dequeues crypto completions from crypto device and enqueue events to the event device. This mode does not ensure ingress ordering, if the application directly enqueues to cryptodev without going through crypto/atomic stage i.e. removing item [1] and [2]. Events dequeued from the adapter will be treated as new events. In this mode, application needs to specify event information (response information) which is needed to enqueue an event after the crypto operation is completed.

    [1] Events from the previous stage.
    [2] Application in ordered stage dequeues events from eventdev.
    [3] Application enqueues crypto operations as events to eventdev.
    [4] Crypto adapter dequeues event from eventdev.
    [5] Crypto adapter submits crypto operations to cryptodev
        (Atomic stage).
    [6] Crypto adapter dequeues crypto completions from cryptodev
    [7] Crypto adapter enqueues events to the eventdev
    [8] Events to the next stage

In the RTE_EVENT_CRYPTO_ADAPTER_OP_FORWARD mode, if HW supports RTE_EVENT_CRYPTO_ADAPTER_CAP_INTERNAL_PORT_OP_FWD capability the application can directly submit the crypto operations to the cryptodev. If not, application retrieves crypto adapter's event port using rte_event_crypto_adapter_event_port_get() API. Then, links its event queue to this port and starts enqueuing crypto operations as events to the eventdev. The adapter then dequeues the events and submits the crypto operations to the cryptodev. After the crypto completions, the adapter enqueues events to the event device. Application can use this mode, when ingress packet ordering is needed. Events dequeued from the adapter will be treated as forwarded events. In this mode, the application needs to specify the cryptodev ID and queue pair ID (request information) needed to enqueue a crypto operation in addition to the event information (response information) needed to enqueue an event after the crypto operation has completed.

The event crypto adapter provides common APIs to configure the packet flow from the crypto device to event devices for both SW and HW based transfers. The crypto event adapter's functions are:

The application creates an instance using rte_event_crypto_adapter_create() or rte_event_crypto_adapter_create_ext().

Cryptodev queue pair addition/deletion is done using the rte_event_crypto_adapter_queue_pair_xxx() APIs. If HW supports RTE_EVENT_CRYPTO_ADAPTER_CAP_INTERNAL_PORT_QP_EV_BIND capability, event information must be passed to the add API.

The SW adapter or HW PMD uses rte_crypto_op::sess_type to decide whether request/response(private) data is located in the crypto/security session or at an offset in the rte_crypto_op.

For session-based operations, the set and get API provides a mechanism for an application to store and retrieve the data information stored along with the crypto session. The RTE_EVENT_CRYPTO_ADAPTER_CAP_SESSION_PRIVATE_DATA capability indicates whether HW or SW supports this feature.

For session-less mode, the adapter gets the private data information placed along with the struct rte_crypto_op. The rte_crypto_op::private_data_offset provides an offset to locate the request/response information in the rte_crypto_op. This offset is counted from the start of the rte_crypto_op including initialization vector (IV).

struct rte_event  ev[],
uint16_t  nb_events 
)
inlinestatic

Enqueue a burst of crypto operations as event objects supplied in rte_event structure on an event crypto adapter designated by its event dev_id through the event port specified by port_id. This function is supported if the eventdev PMD has the RTE_EVENT_CRYPTO_ADAPTER_CAP_INTERNAL_PORT_OP_FWD capability flag set.

The nb_events parameter is the number of event objects to enqueue which are supplied in the ev array of rte_event structure.

The rte_event_crypto_adapter_enqueue() function returns the number of event objects it actually enqueued. A return value equal to nb_events means that all event objects have been enqueued.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the device.
port_idThe identifier of the event port.
evPoints to an array of nb_events objects of type rte_event structure which contain the event object enqueue operations to be processed.
nb_eventsThe number of event objects to enqueue, typically number of rte_event_port_attr_get(...RTE_EVENT_PORT_ATTR_ENQ_DEPTH...) available for this port.
Returns
The number of event objects actually enqueued on the event device. The return value can be less than the value of the nb_events parameter when the event devices queue is full or if invalid parameters are specified in a rte_event. If the return value is less than nb_events, the remaining events at the end of ev[] are not consumed and the caller has to take care of them, and rte_errno is set accordingly. Possible errno values include:
  • EINVAL The port ID is invalid, device ID is invalid, an event's queue ID is invalid, or an event's sched type doesn't match the capabilities of the destination queue.
  • ENOSPC The event port was backpressured and unable to enqueue one or more events. This error code is only applicable to closed systems.
