From: Suanming Mou <redacted> A keytag is a piece of data encrypted together with a DEK. When a DEK is referenced by an MKEY.bsf through its index, the keytag is also supplied in the BSF as plaintext. The HW will decrypt the DEK (and the attached keytag) and will fail the operation if the keytags don't match. This commit adds the configuration of the keytag with devargs. Signed-off-by: Suanming Mou <redacted> Signed-off-by: Matan Azrad <redacted> ---Documentation for devargs should be part of this patch. Please split the last patch accordingly. Title can be shortened to Crypto/mlx5: add keytag devarg Fix other patches of devargs accordingly.As I said before, no devargs is really active before adding datapath patches. The option to add all the supported features \ documentations in the patch which actually adds the support is correct. The last patch adds the capabilities and docs when all of them are really supported.In that case split the patches in such a manner that data path is added Before devargs patch with some dummy values and add the devargs with Appropriate documentation update in a later patch.
No, data-path must know all the devargs in advance, it cannot work well without them.
