💅 rte_crypto_sym_xform(3) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to rte_crypto_sym_xform — that's the page title and the manual name, and yes it's a whole mouthful, we're gonna get through it together 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

rte_crypto_sym_xform — literally the symmetric crypto transform struct, no cap 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <rte_crypto_sym.h>

🎀 Data Fields

  • struct rte_crypto_sym_xform * next
  • enum rte_crypto_sym_xform_type type

🌸 Detailed Description 🌸

So. This is the symmetric crypto transform structure. It's the thing you use to tell the library which crypto transforms you actually want, okay? 👑

And here's the iconic part: you can chain multiple transforms together. Like authentication then cipher, or cipher then authentication — both are valid, main character behavior only ✨ Each transform structure can hold exactly one transform (one!! no doubling up, that's not the vibe), and the type field is what tells you which transform lives inside the union. iykyk 💅
