RE: [EXT] [PATCH v2] examples/ipsec-secgw: fix cryptodev to SA mapping

[Anoob Joseph <anoobj@marvell.com>]

Hi Radu,

Using same session across multiple devices would only work if the device instances are same. For example, if you use QAT device 0 & QAT device 1, then the sharing is okay. But if we have QAT and some SW crypto PMD, then the same session will not work. Is it possible to throw a warning when the crypto devices are not of same type?

Thanks,
Anoob
