NAME

       qat_init.sh - QAT resource initializer

       qat_init.sh

SYNOPSIS

       qat_init.sh

DESCRIPTION

       qat_init.sh 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.sh 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.sh binds the device to the vfio-pci device
       driver, making it available for applications using the qatlib user space library.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       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"
