+AESNI MB PMD selection over SNOW3G/ZUC/KASUMI PMDs
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+This PMD supports wireless cipher suite (SNOW3G, ZUC and KASUMI).
+On Intel processors, it is recommended to use this PMD instead of SNOW3G, ZUC and KASUMI PMDs,
+as it enables algorithm mixing (e.g. cipher algorithm SNOW3G-UEA2 with
+authentication algorithm AES-CMAC-128) and performance over IMIX (packet size mix) traffic
+is significantly higher.

+This PMD supports Chacha20-Poly1305 algorithm.
+On Intel processors, it is recommended to use this PMD instead of CHACHA20-POLY1305 PMD,
+as it delivers better performance on single segment buffers.
+For multi-segment buffers, it is still recommended to use CHACHA20-POLY1305 PMD,
