rte_crypto_sym_xform(3)

🦋 NAME 🦋

rte_crypto_sym_xform — bestie, it's the symmetric crypto transform struct, and she's the blueprint for every crypto chain you're gonna build 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <rte_crypto_sym.h>

🎀 Data Fields

• struct rte_crypto_sym_xform * next — the next xform in the chain, holding hands with this one 🫶
• enum rte_crypto_sym_xform_type type — the xform type, aka the "which one am I" tag ⭐

---

💖 Detailed Description 💖

okay so picture this: rte_crypto_sym_xform is the symmetric crypto transform structure, and she's literally the main character 🎀

She's what you use to specify the crypto transforms you actually want. And the way that multiple transforms can be chained together to specify a chain of transforms — like authentication then cipher, or cipher then authentication — is genuinely iconic, no cap 😭🔥

Each transform structure can hold a single transform, and the type field is what tells you which transform is contained within the union. One struct, one transform, one vibe. Periodt 💅
