Description: (RW) Reports the current state of the QAT device. Write to
the file to start or stop the device.
The values are:
* up: the device is up and running
* down: the device is down
It is possible to transition the device from up to down only
if the device is up and vice versa.
This attribute is only available for qat_4xxx devices.

Description: (RW) Reports the current configuration of the QAT device.
Write to the file to change the configured services.
The values are:
* sym;asym: the device is configured for running crypto
services
* asym;sym: identical to sym;asym
* dc: the device is configured for running compression services
* dcc: identical to dc but enables the dc chaining feature,
hash then compression. If this is not required chose dc
* sym: the device is configured for running symmetric crypto
services
* asym: the device is configured for running asymmetric crypto
services
* asym;dc: the device is configured for running asymmetric
crypto services and compression services
* dc;asym: identical to asym;dc
* sym;dc: the device is configured for running symmetric crypto
services and compression services
* dc;sym: identical to sym;dc
It is possible to set the configuration only if the device
is in the `down` state (see /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/state)
The following example shows how to change the configuration of
a device configured for running crypto services in order to
run data compression::
# cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/state
up
# cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/cfg_services
sym;asym
# echo down > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/state
# echo dc > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/cfg_services
# echo up > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/state
# cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/cfg_services
dc

Date: June 2023
KernelVersion: 6.5
Contact: [email protected]
Description: (RW) This configuration option provides a way to force the device into remaining in
the MAX power state.
If idle support is enabled the device will transition to the `MIN` power state when
idle, otherwise will stay in the MAX power state.
Write to the file to enable or disable idle support.
The values are:
* 0: idle support is disabled
* 1: idle support is enabled
Default value is 1.
It is possible to set the pm_idle_enabled value only if the device
is in the `down` state (see /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/state)
The following example shows how to change the pm_idle_enabled of
a device::
# cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/state
up
# cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/pm_idle_enabled
1
# echo down > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/state
# echo 0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/pm_idle_enabled
# echo up > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/state
# cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/pm_idle_enabled

What: /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/rp2srv
Date: January 2024
KernelVersion: 6.7
Contact: [email protected]
Description:
(RW) This attribute provides a way for a user to query a
specific ring pair for the type of service that it is currently
configured for.
When written to, the value is cached and used to perform the
read operation. Allowed values are in the range 0 to N-1, where
N is the max number of ring pairs supported by a device. This
can be queried using the attribute qat/num_rps.
A read returns the service associated to the ring pair queried.
The values are:
* dc: the ring pair is configured for running compression services
* sym: the ring pair is configured for running symmetric crypto
services
* asym: the ring pair is configured for running asymmetric crypto
services
Example usage::
# echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/rp2srv
# cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/rp2srv
sym
This attribute is only available for qat_4xxx devices.

What: /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/auto_reset
Date: May 2024
KernelVersion: 6.9
Contact: [email protected]
Description: (RW) Reports the current state of the autoreset feature
for a QAT device
Write to the attribute to enable or disable device auto reset.
Device auto reset is disabled by default.
The values are:
* 1/Yy/on: auto reset enabled. If the device encounters an
unrecoverable error, it will be reset automatically.
* 0/Nn/off: auto reset disabled. If the device encounters an
unrecoverable error, it will not be reset.
This attribute is only available for qat_4xxx devices.
