I could not open it. What's the status of them now? Have they got
merged?

Besides that, this patchset doesn't seem well organized. For example,
Makefile, version_map, config file, doc (etc.) are all updated separately.

Could you do a re-organization? Personally, I'd suggest something below:

- one patch for introduce extra msg_handler
- one patch for implementing vhost_crypto (release doc should also be
  updated here).
- one patch for adding an example (example doc should also be included
  here).

Of course, if you could split 2nd item a bit further, that'd be better.

Also, the new functions should be marked as "experimental".
