[1/2] build: add option for armv8 crypto extension
Checks
Commit Message
Per armv8 crypto extension support, make build always enable it by default
as long as compiler supports the feature while meson build only enables it
for 'default' machine of generic armv8 architecture. For example,
specifying '-mcpu=cortex-a72' doesn't enable it but '+crypto' is required
in order to enable the feature.
It is also known that not all the armv8 platforms have the crypto
extension. For example, Mellanox BlueField has a variant which doesn't have
it. If crypto enabled binary runs on such a platform, rte_eal_init() fails.
Therefore, an option to control this feature is necessary. It is still
enabled by default but can be selectively disabled by vendors.

The distro/binary portable image needs to be built without crypto. Only the crypto drivers need to be built with crypto and at run time we need to hook up the correct function pointers. So, IMO, by default crypto should be disabled and should be enabled in specific target machine configs.

I make it enabled by default simply because I don't want to change the current
behavior, no breakage.
I also want to hear from others. Jerin, Thomas?

I think, Honnapa suggestion would work as core crypto driver is build as separate binary now.
https://github.com/caviumnetworks/armv8_crypto
If so, It makes sense to disable crypto by default for DPDK as DPDK directly not using any
crypto instructions.

Good point. I don't know how to handle it either. But, the current distro package will not work on BlueField as it is built with crypto enabled. So, IMO, we should consider it as bug.

You may probably know, cpu w/o crypto is related to the export licenses.
Sometimes, vendor has to disable it when exporting in certain conditions. And as
BlueField is still in early stage, we don't mind much existing distro packages
not being able to run on such parts (BlueField having no crypto).
