This is a layer violation. EAL does not know a thing about "ports". This information should come from the crypto framework and so an api in crypto framework is the right place, not EAL. This is a NACK for me.Fair enough. So you mean to use rte_eth_dev_attach in ethdev library and a similar function in cryptodev library?
Yes, and/or wait that the rework in ethdev/eal hotplug has taken place and mirror this in crypto. -- David Marchand
