+=========================================
+IAA Compression Accelerator Crypto Driver
+=========================================
+
+Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@...ux.intel.com>
+
+The IAA crypto driver supports compression/decompression compatible
+with the DEFLATE compression standard described in RFC 1951, which is
+the compression/decompression algorithm exported by this module.
+
+The IAA hardware spec can be found here:
+
+ https://cdrdv2.intel.com/v1/dl/getContent/721858
+
+The iaa_crypto driver is designed to work as a layer underneath
+higher-level compression devices such as zswap.
+
+Users can select IAA compress/decompress acceleration by specifying
+one of the supported IAA compression algorithms in whatever facility
+allows compression algorithms to be selected.
+
+For example, a zswap device can select the IAA 'fixed' mode
+represented by selecting the 'deflate-iaa' crypto compression
+algorithm::
+
+ # echo deflate-iaa > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/compressor
+
+This will tell zswap to use the IAA 'fixed' compression mode for all
+compresses and decompresses.
+
+Currently, there is only one compression modes available, 'fixed'
+mode.
+
+The 'fixed' compression mode implements the compression scheme
+specified by RFC 1951 and is given the crypto algorithm name
+'deflate-iaa'. (Because the IAA hardware has a 4k history-window
+limitation, only buffers <= 4k, or that have been compressed using a
+<= 4k history window, are technically compliant with the deflate spec,
+which allows for a window of up to 32k. Because of this limitation,
+the IAA fixed mode deflate algorithm is given its own algorithm name
+rather than simply 'deflate').
+
+
+Config options and other setup
+==============================
+
+The IAA crypto driver is available via menuconfig using the following
+path::
+
+ Cryptographic API -> Hardware crypto devices -> Support for Intel(R) IAA Compression Accelerator
+
+In the configuration file the option called CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_IAA_CRYPTO.
+
+The IAA crypto driver also supports statistics, which are available
+via menuconfig using the following path::
+
+ Cryptographic API -> Hardware crypto devices -> Support for Intel(R) IAA Compression -> Enable Intel(R) IAA Compression Accelerator Statistics
+
+In the configuration file the option called CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_IAA_CRYPTO_STATS.
+
+The following config options should also be enabled::
+
+ CONFIG_IRQ_REMAP=y
+ CONFIG_INTEL_IOMMU=y
+ CONFIG_INTEL_IOMMU_SVM=y
+ CONFIG_PCI_ATS=y
+ CONFIG_PCI_PRI=y
+ CONFIG_PCI_PASID=y
+ CONFIG_INTEL_IDXD=m
+ CONFIG_INTEL_IDXD_SVM=y
+
+IAA is one of the first Intel accelerator IPs that can work in
+conjunction with the Intel IOMMU. There are multiple modes that exist
+for testing. Based on IOMMU configuration, there are 3 modes::
+
+ - Scalable
+ - Legacy
+ - No IOMMU
+
+
+Scalable mode
+-------------
+
+Scalable mode supports Shared Virtual Memory (SVM or SVA). It is
+entered when using the kernel boot commandline::
+
+ intel_iommu=on,sm_on
+
+with VT-d turned on in BIOS.
+
+With scalable mode, both shared and dedicated workqueues are available
+for use.
+
+For scalable mode, the following BIOS settings should be enabled::
+
+ Socket Configuration > IIO Configuration > Intel VT for Directed I/O (VT-d) > Intel VT for Directed I/O
+
+ Socket Configuration > IIO Configuration > PCIe ENQCMD > ENQCMDS
+
+
+Legacy mode
+-----------
+
+Legacy mode is entered when using the kernel boot commandline::
+
+ intel_iommu=off
+
+or VT-d is not turned on in BIOS.
+
+If you have booted into Linux and not sure if VT-d is on, do a "dmesg
+| grep -i dmar". If you don't see a number of DMAR devices enumerated,
+most likely VT-d is not on.
+
+With legacy mode, only dedicated workqueues are available for use.
+
+
+No IOMMU mode
+-------------
+
+No IOMMU mode is entered when using the kernel boot commandline::
+
+ iommu=off.
+
+With no IOMMU mode, only dedicated workqueues are available for use.
+
+
+Usage
+=====
+
+accel-config
+------------
+
+When loaded, the iaa_crypto driver automatically creates a default
+configuration and enables it, and assigns default driver attributes.
+If a different configuration or set of driver attributes is required,
+the user must first disable the IAA devices and workqueues, reset the
+configuration, and then re-register the deflate-iaa algorithm with the
+crypto subsystem by removing and reinserting the iaa_crypto module.
+
+The :ref:`iaa_disable_script` in the 'Use Cases'
+section below can be used to disable the default configuration.
+
+See :ref:`iaa_default_config` below for details of the default
+configuration.
+
+More likely than not, however, and because of the complexity and
+configurability of the accelerator devices, the user will want to
+configure the device and manually enable the desired devices and
+workqueues.
+
+The userspace tool to help doing that is called accel-config. Using
+accel-config to configure device or loading a previously saved config
+is highly recommended. The device can be controlled via sysfs
+directly but comes with the warning that you should do this ONLY if
+you know exactly what you are doing. The following sections will not
+cover the sysfs interface but assumes you will be using accel-config.
+
+The :ref:`iaa_sysfs_config` section in the appendix below can be
+consulted for the sysfs interface details if interested.
+
+The accel-config tool along with instructions for building it can be
+found here:
+
+ https://github.com/intel/idxd-config/#readme
+
+Typical usage
+-------------
+
+In order for the iaa_crypto module to actually do any
+compression/decompression work on behalf of a facility, one or more
+IAA workqueues need to be bound to the iaa_crypto driver.
+
+For instance, here's an example of configuring an IAA workqueue and
+binding it to the iaa_crypto driver (note that device names are
+specified as 'iax' rather than 'iaa' - this is because upstream still
+has the old 'iax' device naming in place) ::
+
+ # configure wq1.0
+
+ accel-config config-wq --group-id=0 --mode=dedicated --type=kernel --name="iaa_crypto" --device_name="crypto" iax1/wq1.0
+
+ # enable IAA device iax1
+
+ accel-config enable-device iax1
+
+ # enable wq1.0 on IAX device iax1
+
+ accel-config enable-wq iax1/wq1.0
+
+Whenever a new workqueue is bound to or unbound from the iaa_crypto
+driver, the available workqueues are 'rebalanced' such that work
+submitted from a particular CPU is given to the most appropriate
+workqueue available. Current best practice is to configure and bind
+at least one workqueue for each IAA device, but as long as there is at
+least one workqueue configured and bound to any IAA device in the
+system, the iaa_crypto driver will work, albeit most likely not as
+efficiently.
+
+The IAA crypto algorigthms is operational and compression and
+decompression operations are fully enabled following the successful
+binding of the first IAA workqueue to the iaa_crypto driver.
+
+Similarly, the IAA crypto algorithm is not operational and compression
+and decompression operations are disabled following the unbinding of
+the last IAA worqueue to the iaa_crypto driver.
+
+As a result, the IAA crypto algorithms and thus the IAA hardware are
+only available when one or more workques are bound to the iaa_crypto
+driver.
+
+When there are no IAA workqueues bound to the driver, the IAA crypto
+algorithms can be unregistered by removing the module.
+
+
+Driver attributes
+-----------------
+
+There are a couple user-configurable driver attributes that can be
+used to configure various modes of operation. They're listed below,
+along with their default values. To set any of these attributes, echo
+the appropriate values to the attribute file located under
+/sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/
+
+The attribute settings at the time the IAA algorithms are registered
+are captured in each algorithm's crypto_ctx and used for all compresses
+and decompresses when using that algorithm.
+
+The available attributes are:
+
+ - verify_compress
+
+ Toggle compression verification. If set, each compress will be
+ internally decompressed and the contents verified, returning error
+ codes if unsuccessful. This can be toggled with 0/1::
+
+ echo 0 > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/verify_compress
+
+ The default setting is '1' - verify all compresses.
+
+ - sync_mode
+
+ Select mode to be used to wait for completion of each compresses
+ and decompress operation.
+
+ The crypto async interface support implemented by iaa_crypto
+ provides an implementation that satisfies the interface but does
+ so in a synchronous manner - it fills and submits the IDXD
+ descriptor and then loops around waiting for it to complete before
+ returning. This isn't a problem at the moment, since all existing
+ callers (e.g. zswap) wrap any asynchronous callees in a
+ synchronous wrapper anyway.
+
+ The iaa_crypto driver does however provide true asynchronous
+ support for callers that can make use of it. In this mode, it
+ fills and submits the IDXD descriptor, then returns immediately
+ with -EINPROGRESS. The caller can then either poll for completion
+ itself, which requires specific code in the caller which currently
+ nothing in the upstream kernel implements, or go to sleep and wait
+ for an interrupt signaling completion. This latter mode is
+ supported by current users in the kernel such as zswap via
+ synchronous wrappers. Although it is supported this mode is
+ significantly slower than the synchronous mode that does the
+ polling in the iaa_crypto driver previously mentioned.
+
+ This mode can be enabled by writing 'async_irq' to the sync_mode
+ iaa_crypto driver attribute::
+
+ echo async_irq > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode
+
+ Async mode without interrupts (caller must poll) can be enabled by
+ writing 'async' to it::
+
+ echo async > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode
+
+ The mode that does the polling in the iaa_crypto driver can be
+ enabled by writing 'sync' to it::
+
+ echo sync > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode
+
+ The default mode is 'sync'.
+
+.. _iaa_default_config:
+
+IAA Default Configuration
+-------------------------
+
+When the iaa_crypto driver is loaded, each IAA device has a single
+work queue configured for it, with the following attributes::
+
+ mode "dedicated"
+ threshold 0
+ size 16
+ priority 10
+ type IDXD_WQT_KERNEL
+ group 0
+ name "iaa_crypto"
+ driver_name "crypto"
+
+The devices and workqueues are also enabled and therefore the driver
+is ready to be used without any additional configuration.
+
+The default driver attributes in effect when the driver is loaded are::
+
+ sync_mode "sync"
+ verify_compress 1
+
+In order to change either the device/work queue or driver attributes,
+the enabled devices and workqueues must first be disabled. In order
+to have the new configuration applied to the deflate-iaa crypto
+algorithm, it needs to be re-registered by removing and reinserting
+the iaa_crypto module. The :ref:`iaa_disable_script` in the 'Use
+Cases' section below can be used to disable the default configuration.
+
+Statistics
+==========
+
+If the optional debugfs statistics support is enabled, the IAA crypto
+driver will generate statistics which can be accessed in debugfs at::
+
+ # ls -al /sys/kernel/debug/iaa-crypto/
+ total 0
+ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Mar 3 09:35 .
+ drwx------ 47 root root 0 Mar 3 09:35 ..
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 3 09:35 max_acomp_delay_ns
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 3 09:35 max_adecomp_delay_ns
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 3 09:35 max_comp_delay_ns
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 3 09:35 max_decomp_delay_ns
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 3 09:35 stats_reset
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 3 09:35 total_comp_bytes_out
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 3 09:35 total_comp_calls
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 3 09:35 total_decomp_bytes_in
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 3 09:35 total_decomp_calls
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 3 09:35 wq_stats
+
+Most of the above statisticss are self-explanatory. The wq_stats file
+shows per-wq stats, a set for each iaa device and wq in addition to
+some global stats::
+
+ # cat wq_stats
+ global stats:
+ total_comp_calls: 100
+ total_decomp_calls: 100
+ total_comp_bytes_out: 22800
+ total_decomp_bytes_in: 22800
+ total_completion_einval_errors: 0
+ total_completion_timeout_errors: 0
+ total_completion_comp_buf_overflow_errors: 0
+
+ iaa device:
+ id: 1
+ n_wqs: 1
+ comp_calls: 0
+ comp_bytes: 0
+ decomp_calls: 0
+ decomp_bytes: 0
+ wqs:
+ name: iaa_crypto
+ comp_calls: 0
+ comp_bytes: 0
+ decomp_calls: 0
+ decomp_bytes: 0
+
+ iaa device:
+ id: 3
+ n_wqs: 1
+ comp_calls: 0
+ comp_bytes: 0
+ decomp_calls: 0
+ decomp_bytes: 0
+ wqs:
+ name: iaa_crypto
+ comp_calls: 0
+ comp_bytes: 0
+ decomp_calls: 0
+ decomp_bytes: 0
+
+ iaa device:
+ id: 5
+ n_wqs: 1
+ comp_calls: 100
+ comp_bytes: 22800
+ decomp_calls: 100
+ decomp_bytes: 22800
+ wqs:
+ name: iaa_crypto
+ comp_calls: 100
+ comp_bytes: 22800
+ decomp_calls: 100
+ decomp_bytes: 22800
+
+Writing 0 to 'stats_reset' resets all the stats, including the
+per-device and per-wq stats::
+
+ # echo 0 > stats_reset
+ # cat wq_stats
+ global stats:
+ total_comp_calls: 0
+ total_decomp_calls: 0
+ total_comp_bytes_out: 0
+ total_decomp_bytes_in: 0
+ total_completion_einval_errors: 0
+ total_completion_timeout_errors: 0
+ total_completion_comp_buf_overflow_errors: 0
+ ...
+
+
+Use cases
+=========
+
+Simple zswap test
+-----------------
+
+For this example, the kernel should be configured according to the
+dedicated mode options described above, and zswap should be enabled as
+well::
+
+ CONFIG_ZSWAP=y
+
+This is a simple test that uses iaa_compress as the compressor for a
+swap (zswap) device. It sets up the zswap device and then uses the
+memory_memadvise program listed below to forcibly swap out and in a
+specified number of pages, demonstrating both compress and decompress.
+
+The zswap test expects the work queues for each IAA device on the
+system to be configured properly as a kernel workqueue with a
+workqueue driver_name of "crypto".
+
+The first step is to make sure the iaa_crypto module is loaded::
+
+ modprobe iaa_crypto
+
+If the IAA devices and workqueues haven't previously been disabled and
+reconfigured, then the default configuration should be in place and no
+further IAA configuration is necessary. See :ref:`iaa_default_config`
+below for details of the default configuration.
+
+If the default configuration is in place, you should see the iaa
+devices and wq0s enabled::
+
+ # cat /sys/bus/dsa/devices/iax1/state
+ enabled
+ # cat /sys/bus/dsa/devices/iax1/wq1.0/state
+ enabled
+
+To demonstrate that the following steps work as expected, these
+commands can be used to enable debug output::
+
+ # echo -n 'module iaa_crypto +p' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control
+ # echo -n 'module idxd +p' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control
+
+Use the following commands to enable zswap::
+
+ # echo 0 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/enabled
+ # echo 50 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/max_pool_percent
+ # echo deflate-iaa > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/compressor
+ # echo zsmalloc > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/zpool
+ # echo 1 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/enabled
+ # echo 0 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/same_filled_pages_enabled
+ # echo 100 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
+ # echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
+ # echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory
+
+Now you can now run the zswap workload you want to measure. For
+example, using the memory_memadvise code below, the following command
+will swap in and out 100 pages::
+
+ ./memory_madvise 100
+
+ Allocating 100 pages to swap in/out
+ Swapping out 100 pages
+ Swapping in 100 pages
+ Swapped out and in 100 pages
+
+You should see something like the following in the dmesg output::
+
+ [ 404.202972] idxd 0000:e7:02.0: iaa_comp_acompress: dma_map_sg, src_addr 223925c000, nr_sgs 1, req->src 00000000ee7cb5e6, req->slen 4096, sg_dma_len(sg) 4096
+ [ 404.202973] idxd 0000:e7:02.0: iaa_comp_acompress: dma_map_sg, dst_addr 21dadf8000, nr_sgs 1, req->dst 000000008d6acea8, req->dlen 4096, sg_dma_len(sg) 8192
+ [ 404.202975] idxd 0000:e7:02.0: iaa_compress: desc->src1_addr 223925c000, desc->src1_size 4096, desc->dst_addr 21dadf8000, desc->max_dst_size 4096, desc->src2_addr 2203543000, desc->src2_size 1568
+ [ 404.202981] idxd 0000:e7:02.0: iaa_compress_verify: (verify) desc->src1_addr 21dadf8000, desc->src1_size 228, desc->dst_addr 223925c000, desc->max_dst_size 4096, desc->src2_addr 0, desc->src2_size 0
+ ...
+
+Now that basic functionality has been demonstrated, the defaults can
+be erased and replaced with a different configuration. To do that,
+first disable zswap::
+
+ # echo lzo > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/compressor
+ # swapoff -a
+ # echo 0 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/accept_threshold_percent
+ # echo 0 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/max_pool_percent
+ # echo 0 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/enabled
+ # echo 0 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/enabled
+
+Then run the :ref:`iaa_disable_script` in the 'Use Cases' section
+below to disable the default configuration.
+
+Finally turn swap back on::
+
+ # swapon -a
+
+Following all that the IAA device(s) can now be re-configured and
+enabled as desired for further testing. Below is one example.
+
+The zswap test expects the work queues for each IAA device on the
+system to be configured properly as a kernel workqueue with a
+workqueue driver_name of "crypto".
+
+The below script automatically does that::
+
+ #!/bin/bash
+
+ echo "IAA devices:"
+ lspci -d:0cfe
+ echo "# IAA devices:"
+ lspci -d:0cfe | wc -l
+
+ #
+ # count iaa instances
+ #
+ iaa_dev_id="0cfe"
+ num_iaa=$(lspci -d:${iaa_dev_id} | wc -l)
+ echo "Found ${num_iaa} IAA instances"
+
+ #
+ # disable iaa wqs and devices
+ #
+ echo "Disable IAA"
+
+ for ((i = 1; i < ${num_iaa} * 2; i += 2)); do
+ echo disable wq iax${i}/wq${i}.0
+ accel-config disable-wq iax${i}/wq${i}.0
+ echo disable iaa iax${i}
+ accel-config disable-device iax${i}
+ done
+
+ echo "End Disable IAA"
+
+ #
+ # configure iaa wqs and devices
+ #
+ echo "Configure IAA"
+ for ((i = 1; i < ${num_iaa} * 2; i += 2)); do
+ accel-config config-wq --group-id=0 --mode=dedicated --size=128 --priority=10 --type=kernel --name="iaa_crypto" --driver_name="crypto" iax${i}/wq${i}
+ done
+
+ echo "End Configure IAA"
+
+ #
+ # enable iaa wqs and devices
+ #
+ echo "Enable IAA"
+
+ for ((i = 1; i < ${num_iaa} * 2; i += 2)); do
+ echo enable iaa iaa${i}
+ accel-config enable-device iaa${i}
+ echo enable wq iaa${i}/wq${i}.0
+ accel-config enable-wq iaa${i}/wq${i}.0
+ done
+
+ echo "End Enable IAA"
+
+When the workqueues are bound to the iaa_crypto driver, you should
+see something similar to the following in dmesg output if you've
+enabled debug output (echo -n 'module iaa_crypto +p' >
+/sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control)::

+Once the workqueues and devices have been enabled, the IAA crypto
+algorithms are enabled and available. When the IAA crypto algorithms
+have been successfully enabled, you should see the following dmesg
+output::
+
+ [ 64.893759] iaa_crypto: iaa_crypto_enable: iaa_crypto now ENABLED
+
+Now run the following zswap-specific setup commands to have zswap use
+the 'fixed' compression mode::
+
+ echo 0 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/enabled
+ echo 50 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/max_pool_percent
+ echo deflate-iaa > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/compressor
+ echo zsmalloc > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/zpool
+ echo 1 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/enabled
+ echo 0 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/same_filled_pages_enabled
+
+ echo 100 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
+ echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
+ echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory
+
+Finally, you can now run the zswap workload you want to measure. For
+example, using the code below, the following command will swap in and
+out 100 pages::
+
+ ./memory_madvise 100
+
+ Allocating 100 pages to swap in/out
+ Swapping out 100 pages
+ Swapping in 100 pages
+ Swapped out and in 100 pages
+
+You should see something like the following in the dmesg output if
+you've enabled debug output (echo -n 'module iaa_crypto +p' >
+/sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control)::

+
+In order to unregister the IAA crypto algorithms, and register new
+ones using different parameters, any users of the current algorithm
+should be stopped and the IAA workqueues and devices disabled.
+
+In the case of zswap, remove the IAA crypto algorithm as the
+compressor and turn off swap (to remove all references to
+iaa_crypto)::
+
+ echo lzo > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/compressor
+ swapoff -a
+
+ echo 0 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/accept_threshold_percent
+ echo 0 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/max_pool_percent
+ echo 0 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/enabled
+
+Once zswap is disabled and no longer using iaa_crypto, the IAA wqs and
+devices can be disabled.
+
+.. _iaa_disable_script:
+
+IAA disable script
+------------------
+
+The below script automatically does that::
+
+ #!/bin/bash
+
+ echo "IAA devices:"
+ lspci -d:0cfe
+ echo "# IAA devices:"
+ lspci -d:0cfe | wc -l
+
+ #
+ # count iaa instances
+ #
+ iaa_dev_id="0cfe"
+ num_iaa=$(lspci -d:${iaa_dev_id} | wc -l)
+ echo "Found ${num_iaa} IAA instances"
+
+ #
+ # disable iaa wqs and devices
+ #
+ echo "Disable IAA"
+
+ for ((i = 1; i < ${num_iaa} * 2; i += 2)); do
+ echo disable wq iax${i}/wq${i}.0
+ accel-config disable-wq iax${i}/wq${i}.0
+ echo disable iaa iax${i}
+ accel-config disable-device iax${i}
+ done
+
+ echo "End Disable IAA"
+
+Finally, at this point the iaa_crypto module can be removed, which
+will unregister the current IAA crypto algorithms::
+
+ rmmod iaa_crypto
+

+Appendix
+========
+
+.. _iaa_sysfs_config:
+
+IAA sysfs config interface
+--------------------------
+
+Below is a description of the IAA sysfs interface, which as mentioned
+in the main document, should only be used if you know exactly what you
+are doing. Even then, there's no compelling reason to use it directly
+since accel-config can do everything the sysfs interface can and in
+fact accel-config is based on it under the covers.
+
+The 'IAA config path' is /sys/bus/dsa/devices and contains
+subdirectories representing each IAA device, workqueue, engine, and
+group. Note that in the sysfs interface, the IAA devices are actually
+named using iax e.g. iax1, iax3, etc. (Note that IAA devices are the
+odd-numbered devices; the even-numbered devices are DSA devices and
+can be ignored for IAA).
+
+The 'IAA device bind path' is /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/idxd/bind and is
+the file that is written to enable an IAA device.
+
+The 'IAA workqueue bind path' is /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/bind and
+is the file that is written to enable an IAA workqueue.
+
+Similarly /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/idxd/unbind and
+/sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/unbind are used to disable IAA devices and
+workqueues.
+
+The basic sequence of commands needed to set up the IAA devices and
+workqueues is:
+
+For each device::
+ 1) Disable any workqueues enabled on the device. For example to
+ disable workques 0 and 1 on IAA device 3::
+
+ # echo wq3.0 > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/unbind
+ # echo wq3.1 > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/unbind
+
+ 2) Disable the device. For example to disable IAA device 3::
+
+ # echo iax3 > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/idxd/unbind
+
+ 3) configure the desired workqueues. For example, to configure
+ workqueue 3 on IAA device 3::
+
+ # echo dedicated > /sys/bus/dsa/devices/iax3/wq3.3/mode
+ # echo 128 > /sys/bus/dsa/devices/iax3/wq3.3/size
+ # echo 0 > /sys/bus/dsa/devices/iax3/wq3.3/group_id
+ # echo 10 > /sys/bus/dsa/devices/iax3/wq3.3/priority
+ # echo "kernel" > /sys/bus/dsa/devices/iax3/wq3.3/type
+ # echo "iaa_crypto" > /sys/bus/dsa/devices/iax3/wq3.3/name
+ # echo "crypto" > /sys/bus/dsa/devices/iax3/wq3.3/driver_name
+
+ 4) Enable the device. For example to enable IAA device 3::
+
+ # echo iax3 > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/idxd/bind
+
+ 5) Enable the desired workqueues on the device. For example to
+ enable workques 0 and 1 on IAA device 3::
+
+ # echo wq3.0 > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/bind
+ # echo wq3.1 > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/bind
