[dpdk-dev,v4,04/26] cryptodev: do not store pointer to op specific params
Checks
Commit Message
Instead of storing a pointer to operation specific parameters,
such as symmetric crypto parameters, use a zero-length array,
to mark that these parameters will be stored after the
generic crypto operation structure, which was already assumed
in the code, reducing the memory footprint of the crypto operation.
Besides, it is always expected to have rte_crypto_op
and rte_crypto_sym_op (the only operation specific parameters
structure right now) to be together, as they are initialized
as a single object in the crypto operation pool.
