+AESN-NI Multi Buffer Crytpo Poll Mode Driver
+============================================
+
+
+The AESNI MB PMD (**librte_pmd_aesni_mb**) provides poll mode crypto driver
+support for utilising Intel multi buffer library, see the white paper
+`Fast Multi-buffer IPsec Implementations on Intel® Architecture Processors
+<https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us/en/intelligent-systems/intel-technology/fast-multi-buffer-ipsec-implementations-ia-processors-paper.html?wapkw=multi+buffer>`_.
+
+The AES-NI MB PMD has current only been tested on Fedora 21 64-bit with gcc.
+
+Features
+--------
+
+AESNI MB PMD has support for:
+
+Cipher algorithms:
+
+* RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_CIPHER_AES128_CBC
+* RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_CIPHER_AES256_CBC
+* RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_CIPHER_AES512_CBC
+
+Hash algorithms:
+
+* RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_HASH_SHA1_HMAC
+* RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_HASH_SHA256_HMAC
+* RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_HASH_SHA512_HMAC
+
+Limitations
+-----------
+
+* Chained mbufs are not supported.
+* Hash only is not supported.
+* Cipher only is not supported.
+* Only in-place is currently supported (destination address is the same as source address).
+* Only supports session-oriented API implementation (session-less APIs are not supported).
+* Not performance tuned.
+
+Installation
+------------
+
+To build DPKD with the AESNI_MB_PMD the user is required to download the library
+from `here <https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/22972>`_ and compile it on
+their user system before building DPDK. The environmental variable
+AESNI_MULTI_BUFFER_LIB_PATH must be exported with the path where you extracted
+and built the multi buffer library and finally set
+CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_AESNI_MB=y in config/common_linuxapp.

+Quick Assist Crypto Poll Mode Driver
+====================================
+
+
+The QAT PMD provides poll mode crypto driver support for **Intel
+QuickAssist Technology DH895xxC hardware accelerator. QAT PMD has
+current only been tested on Fedora 21 64-bit with gcc.
+
+Features
+--------
+
+QAT PMD has support for:
+
+Cipher algorithms:
+
+* RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_CIPHER_AES128_CBC
+* RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_CIPHER_AES256_CBC
+* RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_CIPHER_AES512_CBC

+* Only in-place is currently supported (destination address is the same as source address).
+* Only supports session-oriented API implementation (session-less APIs are not supported).
+* Not performance tuned.
+
+Installation
+------------
+
+To use the DPDK QAT PMD an SRIOV-enabled QAT kernel driver is required.
+The VF devices exposed by this driver will be used by QAT PMD
+Future kernel versions will provide this as standard, in the interim the
+following steps are necessary to load this driver.
+
+
+Download the latest QuickAssist Technology Driver from 01.org
+https://01.org/packet-processing/intel%C2%AE-quickassist-technology-drivers-and-patches
+Consult the Getting Started Guide at the same URL for further information.
+
+Steps below assume
+ * building on a platform with one DH895xCC device
+ * using package qatmux.l.2.3.0-34.tgz
+ * on Fedora21 kernel 3.17.4-301.fc21.x86_64
+
+In BIOS ensure that SRIOV is enabled and VT-d is disabled.
+
+Uninstall any existing QAT driver, e.g. by running
+ * "./installer.sh uninstall" in the directory where originally installed
+ or
+ * "rmmod qat_dh895xcc; rmmod intel_qat"
+
+Build and install the SRIOV-enabled QAT driver
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ "mkdir /QAT; cd /QAT"
+ copy qatmux.l.2.3.0-34.tgz to this location
+ "tar zxof qatmux.l.2.3.0-34.tgz"
+ "export ICP_WITHOUT_IOMMU=1"
+ "./installer.sh install QAT1.6 host"
+
+You can use "cat /proc/icp_dh895xcc_dev0/version" to confirm the driver is correctly installed.
+You can use "lspci -d:443" to confirm the bdf of the 32 VF devices available per DH895xCC device.
+
+The unbind command below assumes bdfs of 02:01.00-02:04.07, if yours are different adjust the unbind command below.
+
+Make available to DPDK
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ cd $(RTE_SDK) (See http://dpdk.org/doc/quick-start to install DPDK)
+ "modprobe uio"
+ "insmod ./build/kmod/igb_uio.ko"
+ "for device in $(seq 1 4); do for fn in $(seq 0 7); do echo -n 0000:02:0${device}.${fn} > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:02\:0${device}.${fn}/driver/unbind;done ;done"
+ "echo "8086 0443" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/igb_uio/new_id"
+
+You can use "lspci -vvd:443" to confirm that all devices are now in use by igb_uio kernel driver
+
+
+Notes:
+If using a later kernel and the build fails with an error relating to strict_stroul not being available patch the following file:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ /QAT/QAT1.6/quickassist/utilities/downloader/Target_CoreLibs/uclo/include/linux/uclo_platform.h
+ + #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(3,18,5)
+ + #define STR_TO_64(str, base, num, endPtr) {endPtr=NULL; if (kstrtoul((str), (base), (num))) printk("Error strtoull convert %s\n", str); }
+ + #else
+ #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,38)
+ #define STR_TO_64(str, base, num, endPtr) {endPtr=NULL; if (strict_strtoull((str), (base), (num))) printk("Error strtoull convert %s\n", str); }
+ #else
+ #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,25)
+ #define STR_TO_64(str, base, num, endPtr) {endPtr=NULL; strict_strtoll((str), (base), (num));}
+ #else
+ #define STR_TO_64(str, base, num, endPtr) \
+ do { \
+ if (str[0] == '-') \
+ { \
+ *(num) = -(simple_strtoull((str+1), &(endPtr), (base))); \
+ }else { \
+ *(num) = simple_strtoull((str), &(endPtr), (base)); \
+ } \
+ } while(0)
+ + #endif
+ #endif
+ #endif
+
+
+If build fails due to missing header files you may need to do following:
+ * sudo yum install zlib-devel
+ * sudo yum install openssl-devel
+
+If build or install fails due to mismatching kernel sources you may need to do the following:
+ * sudo yum install kernel-headers-`uname -r`
+ * sudo yum install kernel-src-`uname -r`
+ * sudo yum install kernel-devel-`uname -r`
