# rte\_crypto\_sym\_xform(3)

## NAME

rte\_crypto\_sym\_xform

## SYNOPSIS

`#include <rte_crypto_sym.h>`

### Data Fields

struct **rte\_crypto\_sym\_xform** \* **next**\
 **enum** **rte\_crypto\_sym\_xform\_type** **type**\

## Detailed Description

Symmetric crypto transform structure.

This is used to specify the crypto transforms required, multiple transforms can be chained together to specify a chain transforms such as authentication then cipher, or cipher then authentication. Each transform structure can hold a single transform, the type field is used to specify which transform is contained within the union
