I understand your concern but since DPDK MRVL PMDs are based on external MUSDK library, PMDs names are library centric, i.e we have mvpp2 NET PMD both in library (not prefixed) and in DPDK tree. Ideally the same should apply to CRYPTO part and for the other future drivers as well. -- - Tomasz Duszyński
