Some FC adapters from Marvell offer the ability to encrypt data in flight (EDIF). This feature requires an application to act as an authenticator. As part of the authentication process, the authentication application will generate a SADB entry (Security Association/SA, key, SPI value, etc). This SADB is then passed to driver to be programmed into hardware. There will be a pair of SADB's (Tx and Rx) for each connection. After some period, the application can choose to change the key. At that time, a new set of SADB pair is given to driver. The old set of SADB will be deleted. Add a new bsg call (QL_VND_SC_SA_UPDATE) to allow application to allow adding or deleting SADB entries. Driver will not keep the key in memory. It will pass it to HW. It is assumed that application will assign a unique SPI value to this SADB (SA + key). Driver + hardware will assign a handle to track this unique SPI/SADB.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
