What: /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/cfg_services

Contact: qat-linux@intel.com
Description: Reports the current configuration of the QAT device and allows
to change it.
This attribute is RW.
Returned values:
sym;asym: the device is configured for running
crypto services
dc: the device is configured for running
compression services
Allowed values:
sym;asym: configure the device for running
crypto services
dc: configure the device for running
compression services
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
