4 AMD CCP Poll Mode Driver
5 ========================
6
7 This code provides the initial implementation of the ccp poll mode driver.
8 The CCP poll mode driver library (librte_pmd_ccp) implements support for
9 AMD’s cryptographic co-processor (CCP). The CCP PMD is a virtual crypto
10 poll mode driver which schedules crypto operations to one or more available
11 CCP hardware engines on the platform. The CCP PMD provides poll mode crypto
12 driver support for the following hardware accelerator devices::
13
14         AMD Cryptographic Co-processor (0x1456)
15         AMD Cryptographic Co-processor (0x1468)

56 Installation
57 ------------
58
59 To compile ccp PMD, it has to be enabled in the config/common_base file and openssl
60 packages have to be installed in the build environment.
61
62 * ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_CCP=y``
63
64 For Ubuntu 16.04 LTS use below to install openssl in the build system:
65
66 .. code-block:: console
67
68         sudo apt-get install openssl
69
70 This code was verified on Ubuntu 16.04.
71
72 Initialization
73 --------------
74
75 Bind the CCP devices to DPDK UIO driver module before running the CCP PMD stack.
76 e.g. for the 0x1456 device::
77
78         cd to the top-level DPDK directory
79         modprobe uio
80         insmod ./build/kmod/igb_uio.ko
81         echo "1022 1456" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/igb_uio/new_id
82
83 Another way to bind the CCP devices to DPDK UIO driver is by using the ``dpdk-devbind.py`` script.
84 The following command assumes ``BFD`` as ``0000:09:00.2``::
85
86         cd to the top-level DPDK directory
87         ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -b igb_uio 0000:09:00.2
88
89 In order to enable the ccp crypto PMD, user must set CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_CCP=y in config/common_base.
90
91 To use the PMD in an application, user must:
92
93 * Call rte_vdev_init("crypto_ccp") within the application.
94
95 * Use --vdev="crypto_ccp" in the EAL options, which will call rte_vdev_init() internally.
96
97 The following parameters (all optional) can be provided in the previous two calls:
98
99 * socket_id: Specify the socket where the memory for the device is going to be allocated.
100   (by default, socket_id will be the socket where the core that is creating the PMD is running on).
101
102 * max_nb_queue_pairs: Specify the maximum number of queue pairs in the device.
103
104 * max_nb_sessions: Specify the maximum number of sessions that can be created (2048 by default).
105
106 * ccp_auth_opt: Specify authentication operations to perform on CPU using openssl APIs.
107
108 To validate ccp pmd, l2fwd-crypto example can be used with following command:
109
110 .. code-block:: console
111
112         sudo ./build/l2fwd-crypto -l 1 -n 4 --vdev "crypto_ccp" -- -p 0x1
113         --chain CIPHER_HASH --cipher_op ENCRYPT --cipher_algo AES_CBC
114         --cipher_key 00:01:02:03:04:05:06:07:08:09:0a:0b:0c:0d:0e:0f
115         --iv 00:01:02:03:04:05:06:07:08:09:0a:0b:0c:0d:0e:ff
116         --auth_op GENERATE --auth_algo SHA1_HMAC
117         --auth_key 11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11
118         :11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11
119         :11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11
120
121 The CCP PMD also supports computing authentication over CPU with cipher offloaded to CCP.
122 To enable this feature, pass an additional argument as ccp_auth_opt=1 to --vdev parameters as
123 following:
124
125 .. code-block:: console
126
127         sudo ./build/l2fwd-crypto -l 1 -n 4 --vdev "crypto_ccp,ccp_auth_opt=1" -- -p 0x1
128         --chain CIPHER_HASH --cipher_op ENCRYPT --cipher_algo AES_CBC
129         --cipher_key 00:01:02:03:04:05:06:07:08:09:0a:0b:0c:0d:0e:0f
130         --iv 00:01:02:03:04:05:06:07:08:09:0a:0b:0c:0d:0e:ff
131         --auth_op GENERATE --auth_algo SHA1_HMAC
132         --auth_key 11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11
133         :11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11
134         :11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11:11
135
136 Limitations
137 -----------
138
139 * Chained mbufs are not supported.
140 * MD5_HMAC is supported only for CPU based authentication.
