Can you give more background on where it's derived from? Karsten, I don't understand your question that "...the VPP package is not in the upstream distro." If there is any other information that the board needs to help in the decision please let me know. I have added some more information below about the vpp project and the multi-buffer crypto project and links to source code and upstream rpm repos. More information about fd.io and the vpp project: https://wiki.fd.io/view/VPP The vpp upstream source code is here: https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/admin/projects/vpp,branches VPP packages upstream are here: https://nexus.fd.io/content/repositories/fd.io.stable.1707.centos7/io/fd/vpp/ Currently vpp upstream is built with a multi-buffer library tarball for the multi-buffer library from 01.org. The upstream source for the multi-buffer library linked with VPP is here: https://github.com/01org/intel-ipsec-mb We are planning to build RPMs for the multi-buffer library in this upstream project: https://wiki.fd.io/view/Rpm_dpdk, and https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/admin/projects/rpm_dpdk,branches <https://gerrit.fd.io/r/gitweb?p=rpm_dpdk.git;a=tree;h=refs/heads/master;hb=refs/heads/master> I am also adding Ed Warnicke who worked with Linux Foundation for export license for VPP for use of the multi-buffer library.
