[dpdk-dev] library choices for AES CBC/GCM on dpdk app datapath

[Deep Debroy]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has pointers for a crypto library
implementing AES CBC and GCM that I can use for encrypting network packets
in a DPDK app's datapath.

The app is supposed to run in a VM in the cloud. So access to crypto
acceleration hardware (besides Intel AES NI/pmuludq) may not be present.

Does it make sense to look into OpenSSL and invoking it's APIs from a DPDK
app?

Thanks!
