From 4e8f2d6a6aaebe3f89f3edd09d479434f374a763 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fiona Trahe Date: Wed, 31 Oct 2018 21:46:57 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] compress/qat: add log for IM buffer too small Display trace if error returned from firmware is likely due to intermediate buffers being too small for the compressed output. Update documentation to explain this error case and to clarify intermediate buffer memory usage.
