+Cryptodev Scheduler Poll Mode Driver Library
+============================================
+
+Scheduler PMD is a software crypto PMD, which has the capabilities of
+attaching hardware and/or software cryptodevs, and distributes ingress
+crypto ops among them in a certain manner.
+
+.. figure:: img/scheduler-overview.*
+
+   Cryptodev Scheduler Overview
+
+
+The Cryptodev Scheduler PMD library (**librte_pmd_crypto_scheduler**) acts as
+a software crypto PMD and shares the same API provided by librte_cryptodev.
+The PMD supports attaching multiple crypto PMDs, software or hardware, as
+slaves, and distributes the crypto workload to them with certain behavior.
+The behaviors are categorizes as different "modes". Basically, a scheduling
+mode defines certain actions for scheduling crypto ops to its slaves.
+
+The librte_pmd_crypto_scheduler library exports a C API which provides an API
+for attaching/detaching slaves, set/get scheduling modes, and enable/disable
+crypto ops reordering.
+
+Limitations
+-----------
+
+* Sessionless crypto operation is not supported
+* OOP crypto operation is not supported when the crypto op reordering feature
+  is enabled.
+
+
+Installation
+------------
+
+To build DPDK with CRYTPO_SCHEDULER_PMD the user is required to set
+CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_CRYPTO_SCHEDULER=y in config/common_base, and
+recompile DPDK
+
+
+Initialization
+--------------
+
+To use the PMD in an application, user must:
+
+* Call rte_eal_vdev_init("crpyto_scheduler") within the application.
+
+* Use --vdev="crpyto_scheduler" in the EAL options, which will call
+  rte_eal_vdev_init() internally.
+
+
+The following parameters (all optional) can be provided in the previous
+two calls:
+
+* socket_id: Specify the socket where the memory for the device is going
+  to be allocated (by default, socket_id will be the socket where the core
+  that is creating the PMD is running on).
+
+* max_nb_sessions: Specify the maximum number of sessions that can be
+  created. This value may be overwritten internally if there are too
+  many devices are attached.
+
+* slave: If a cryptodev has been initialized with specific name, it can be
+  attached to the scheduler using this parameter, simply filling the name
+  here. Multiple cryptodevs can be attached initially by presenting this
+  parameter multiple times.
+
+Example:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    ... --vdev "crypto_aesni_mb_pmd,name=aesni_mb_1" --vdev "crypto_aesni_mb_pmd,name=aesni_mb_2" --vdev "crypto_scheduler_pmd,slave=aesni_mb_1,slave=aesni_mb_2" ...
+
+.. note::
+
+    * The scheduler cryptodev cannot be started unless the scheduling mode
+      is set and at least one slave is attached. Also, to configure the
+      scheduler in the run-time, like attach/detach slave(s), change
+      scheduling mode, or enable/disable crypto op ordering, one should stop
+      the scheduler first, otherwise an error will be returned.
+
+    * The crypto op reordering feature requires using the userdata field of
+      every mbuf to be processed to store temporary data. By the end of
+      processing, the field is set to pointing to NULL, any previously
+      stored value of this field will be lost.
+
+
+Cryptodev Scheduler Modes Overview
+----------------------------------
+
+Currently the Crypto Scheduler PMD library supports following modes of
+operation:
+
+*   **CDEV_SCHED_MODE_ROUNDROBIN:**
+
+   Round-robin mode, which distributes the enqueued burst of crypto ops
+   among its slaves in a round-robin manner. This mode may help to fill
+   the throughput gap between the physical core and the existing cryptodevs
+   to increase the overall performance.
