qat_init8
Qat resource initializer qat_init
Usage
qat_init
Overview
qat_init initializes the Intel© Quick Assist Technology (Intel© QAT) devices in preparation for use by the user space library (qatlib).
When run on a host system with physical function (PF) QAT devices visible and bound to the QAT device driver, the qat_init script will enable sriov on each of the PF devices. This enables the virtual function (VF) devices.
For each of the QAT VF devices, the qat_init binds the device to the vfio-pci device driver, making it available for applications using the qatlib user space library.
Environment
LKCF_LIST if set, gives a list of VF devices that should be used for accelerating operations from the Linux crypto framework instead of being available for user space applications.
Example:
LKCF_LIST="0000:3d:01.0 0000:3f:01.0 0000:da:01.0"
