+Extra notes on KASUMI F9
+------------------------
+
+When using KASUMI F9 authentication algorithm, the input buffer must be
+constructed according to the 3GPP KASUMI specifications (section 4.4, page 13):
+`<http://cryptome.org/3gpp/35201-900.pdf>`_.
+Input buffer has to have COUNT (4 bytes), FRESH (4 bytes), MESSAGE and DIRECTION (1 bit)
+concatenated. After the DIRECTION bit, a single '1' bit is appended, followed by
+between 0 and 7 '0' bits, so that the total length of the buffer is multiple of 8 bits.
+Note that the actual message can be any length, specified in bits.
-To enable QAT in DPDK, follow the instructions for modifying the compile-time
+Once this buffer is passed this way, when creating the crypto operation,
+length of data to authenticate (op.sym.auth.data.length) must be the length
+of all the items described above, including the padding at the end.
+Also, offset of data to authenticate (op.sym.auth.data.offset)
+must be such that points at the start of the COUNT bytes.
+
+
+Building the DPDK QAT cryptodev PMD
+-----------------------------------
+
+
+To enable QAT crypto in DPDK, follow the instructions for modifying the compile-time
configuration file as described `here <http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/linux_gsg/build_dpdk.html>`_.
+
Quick instructions are as follows:
.. code-block:: console
cd to the top-level DPDK directory
make config T=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
sed -i 's,\(CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_QAT\)=n,\1=y,' build/.config
+ sed -i 's,\(CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_QAT_SYM\)=n,\1=y,' build/.config
make
-To use the DPDK QAT PMD an SRIOV-enabled QAT kernel driver is required. The VF
-devices exposed by this driver will be used by the QAT PMD. The devices and
-available kernel drivers and device ids are :

+Dependency on the QAT kernel driver
+-----------------------------------
+
+To use the QAT PMD an SRIOV-enabled QAT kernel driver is required. The VF
+devices created and initialised by this driver will be used by the QAT PMD.
+
+Instructions for installation are below, but first an explanation of the
+relationships between the PF/VF devices and the PMDs visible to
+DPDK applications.
+
+
+Acceleration services - cryptography and compression - are provided to DPDK
+applications via PMDs which register to implement the corresponding
+cryptodev and compressdev APIs.
+
+Each QuickAssist VF device can expose one cryptodev PMD and/or one compressdev PMD.
+These QAT PMDs share the same underlying device and pci-mgmt code, but are
+enumerated independently on their respective APIs and appear as independent
+devices to applications.
+
+.. Note::
+
+ Each VF can only be used by one DPDK process. It is not possible to share
+ the same VF across multiple processes, even if these processes are using
+ different acceleration services.
+
+ Conversely one DPDK process can use one or more QAT VFs and can expose both
+ cryptodev and compressdev instances on each of those VFs.
+
+
+
+Device and driver naming
+------------------------
+
+* The qat cryptodev driver name is "crypto_qat".
+ The rte_cryptodev_devices_get() returns the devices exposed by this driver.
+
+* Each qat crypto device has a unique name, in format
+ <pci bdf>_<service>, e.g. "0000:41:01.0_qat_sym".
+ This name can be passed to rte_cryptodev_get_dev_id() to get the device_id.
+
+.. Note::
+
+ The qat crypto driver name is passed to the dpdk-test-crypto-perf tool in the -devtype parameter.
+
+ The qat crypto device name is in the format of the slave parameter passed to the crypto scheduler.
+
+* The qat compressdev driver name is "comp_qat".
+ The rte_compressdev_devices_get() returns the devices exposed by this driver.
+
+* Each qat compression device has a unique name, in format
+ <pci bdf>_<service>, e.g. "0000:41:01.0_qat_comp".
+ This name can be passed to rte_compressdev_get_dev_id() to get the device_id.
+
+
+Available kernel drivers
+------------------------
+
+Kernel drivers for each device are listed in the following table. Scroll right
+to check that the driver and device supports the servic you require.

The ``Driver`` column indicates either the Linux kernel version in which
The steps below assume you are:
-* Building on a platform with one ``DH895xCC`` device.
-* Using package ``qatmux.l.2.3.0-34.tgz``.
-* On Fedora21 kernel ``3.17.4-301.fc21.x86_64``.
+* Building on a platform with one ``C62x`` device.
+* Using package ``qat1.7.l.4.2.0-000xx.tar.gz``.
+* On Fedora26 kernel ``4.11.11-300.fc26.x86_64``.
In the BIOS ensure that SRIOV is enabled and VT-d is disabled.
* ``./installer.sh uninstall`` in the directory where originally installed.
-* or ``rmmod qat_dh895xcc; rmmod intel_qat``.
Build and install the SRIOV-enabled QAT driver::
mkdir /QAT
cd /QAT
- # Copy qatmux.l.2.3.0-34.tgz to this location
- tar zxof qatmux.l.2.3.0-34.tgz
+ # Copy the package to this location and unpack
+ tar zxof qat1.7.l.4.2.0-000xx.tar.gz
- export ICP_WITHOUT_IOMMU=1
- ./installer.sh install QAT1.6 host
+ ./configure --enable-icp-sriov=host
+ make install
+
+You can use ``cat /sys/kernel/debug/qat<your device type and bdf>/version/fw`` to confirm the driver is correctly installed and is using firmware version 4.2.0.
+You can use ``lspci -d:37c9`` to confirm the presence of the 16 VF devices available per ``C62x`` PF.
+
+Confirm the driver is correctly installed and is using firmware version 4.2.0::
+
+ cat /sys/kernel/debug/qat<your device type and bdf>/version/fw
+
+
+Confirm the presence of 48 VF devices - 16 per PF::
+
+ lspci -d:37c9
-You can use ``cat /proc/icp_dh895xcc_dev0/version`` to confirm the driver is correctly installed.
-You can use ``lspci -d:443`` to confirm the of the 32 VF devices available per ``DH895xCC`` device.
To complete the installation - follow instructions in `Binding the available VFs to the DPDK UIO driver`_.
