+ARMv8 Crypto Poll Mode Driver
+================================
Extra "===" here.
+
+This code provides the initial implementation of the ARMv8 crypto PMD.
+The driver uses ARMv8 cryptographic extensions to process chained
crypto
+operations in an optimized way. The core functionality is provided by
+a low-level library, written in the assembly code.
+
+Features
+--------
+
+ARMv8 Crypto PMD has support for the following algorithm pairs:
+
+Supported cipher algorithms:
+* ``RTE_CRYPTO_CIPHER_AES_CBC``
Add a blank like before starting a list (same below).
+
+Supported authentication algorithms:
+* ``RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_SHA1_HMAC``
+* ``RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_SHA256_HMAC``
+
Could you add an entry on the "Crypto Device Supported Functionality Matrices",
to show supported algorithms and feature flags? It is in doc/guides/cryptodevs/overview.rst.

There should be a column per crypto device
(I just realized that I missed one for ZUC PMD, so I will send a patch shortly,
and then you can rebase it on top of it).

The rest of the patchset looks good to me, so once you send another version, I will merge it.

Thanks,
Pablo
