      Description

      The virtio crypto device is a virtual cryptography device as well as a kind of
      virtual hardware accelerator for virtual machines. The encryption and
      decryption requests are placed in the data queue and are ultimately handled by the
      backend crypto accelerators. The second queue is the control queue used to create
      or destroy sessions for symmetric algorithms and will control some advanced
      features in the future. The virtio crypto device provides the following crypto
      services: CIPHER, MAC, HASH, AEAD etc.
