NAME
     rte_flow_action_security

SYNOPSIS
     #include <rte_flow.h>

   Data Fields
     void * security_session

Detailed Description
     RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SECURITY

     Perform the security action on flows matched by the pattern items according
     to the configuration of the security session.

     This  action  modifies the payload of matched flows. For INLINE_CRYPTO, the
     security protocol headers and IV are fully provided by the  application  as
     specified in the flow pattern. The payload of matching packets is encrypted
     on egress, and decrypted and authenticated on ingress. For INLINE_PROTOCOL,
     the  security  protocol is fully offloaded to HW, providing full encapsula-
     tion and decapsulation of packets in security protocols. The  flow  pattern
     specifies	both  the  outer  security  header  fields  and the inner packet
     fields. The security session specified in the action must match the pattern
     parameters.

     The security session specified in the action must be created  on  the  same
     port as the flow action that is being specified.

     The  ingress/egress flow attribute should match that specified in the secu-
     rity session if the security session supports the definition of the  direc-
     tion.

     Multiple flows can be configured to use the same security session.

     The  NULL	value  is  allowed  for security session. If security session is
     NULL, then SPI field in ESP flow item and IP addresses in flow items 'IPv4'
     and 'IPv6' will be allowed to be a range. The rule thus created can  enable
     security processing on multiple flows.
