-Uninstall any existing QAT driver, for example by running:
-* ``./installer.sh uninstall`` in the directory where originally installed.
+The ``Driver`` column indicates either the Linux kernel version in which
+support for this device was introduced or a driver available on Intel's 01.org
+website. There are both linux and 01.org kernel drivers available for some
+devices. p = release pending.
-* 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
-
- export ICP_WITHOUT_IOMMU=1
- ./installer.sh install QAT1.6 host
-
-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 bdf of the 32 VF devices are available per ``DH895xCC`` device.
-
-To complete the installation - follow instructions in `Binding the available VFs to the DPDK UIO driver`_.

Installation using kernel.org driver
------------------------------------
-For **Intel QuickAssist Technology DH895xxC**:
-
-Assuming you are running on at least a 4.4 kernel, you can use the stock kernel.org QAT
-driver to start the QAT hardware.
-
-The steps below assume you are:
+The examples below are based on the C62x device, if you have a different device
+use the corresponding values in the above table.
-* Running DPDK on a platform with one ``DH895xCC`` device.
-* On a kernel at least version 4.4.
+In BIOS ensure that SRIOV is enabled and either:
-In BIOS ensure that SRIOV is enabled and either
-a) disable VT-d or
-b) enable VT-d and set ``"intel_iommu=on iommu=pt"`` in the grub file.
+* Disable VT-d or
+* Enable VT-d and set ``"intel_iommu=on iommu=pt"`` in the grub file.
-Ensure the QAT driver is loaded on your system, by executing::
+Check that the QAT driver is loaded on your system, by executing::
- lsmod | grep qat
+ lsmod | grep qa
-You should see the following output::
+You should see the kernel module for your device listed, e.g.::
- qat_dh895xcc 5626 0
- intel_qat 82336 1 qat_dh895xcc
+ qat_c62x 5626 0
+ intel_qat 82336 1 qat_c62x
Next, you need to expose the Virtual Functions (VFs) using the sysfs file system.
-First find the bdf of the physical function (PF) of the DH895xCC device::
+First find the BDFs (Bus-Device-Function) of the physical functions (PFs) of
+your device, e.g.::
- lspci -d : 435
+ lspci -d : 37c8
You should see output similar to::
- 03:00.0 Co-processor: Intel Corporation Coleto Creek PCIe Endpoint
-
-Using the sysfs, enable the VFs::
-
- echo 32 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/dh895xcc/0000\:03\:00.0/sriov_numvfs
-
-If you get an error, it's likely you're using a QAT kernel driver earlier than kernel 4.4.
-
-To verify that the VFs are available for use - use ``lspci -d:443`` to confirm
-the bdf of the 32 VF devices are available per ``DH895xCC`` device.

+ 3f:00.0 Co-processor: Intel Corporation Device 37c8
-To complete the installation - follow instructions in `Binding the available VFs to the DPDK UIO driver`_.
+Enable the VFs for each PF by echoing the number of VFs per PF to the pci driver::
-**Note**: If the QAT kernel modules are not loaded and you see an error like
- ``Failed to load MMP firmware qat_895xcc_mmp.bin`` this may be as a
- result of not using a distribution, but just updating the kernel directly.

+ echo 16 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/c6xx/0000:3f:00.0/sriov_numvfs
-Download firmware from the kernel firmware repo at:
-http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/
+Check that the VFs are available for use. For example ``lspci -d:37c9`` should
+list 48 VF devices available for a ``C62x`` device.
-Copy qat binaries to /lib/firmware:
-* ``cp qat_895xcc.bin /lib/firmware``
-* ``cp qat_895xcc_mmp.bin /lib/firmware``
+To complete the installation follow the instructions in
+`Binding the available VFs to the DPDK UIO driver`_.
-cd to your linux source root directory and start the qat kernel modules:
-* ``insmod ./drivers/crypto/qat/qat_common/intel_qat.ko``
-* ``insmod ./drivers/crypto/qat/qat_dh895xcc/qat_dh895xcc.ko``
+.. Note::
-**Note**:The following warning in /var/log/messages can be ignored:
- ``IOMMU should be enabled for SR-IOV to work correctly``
+ If the QAT kernel modules are not loaded and you see an error like ``Failed
+ to load MMP firmware qat_895xcc_mmp.bin`` in kernel logs, this may be as a
+ result of not using a distribution, but just updating the kernel directly.

-For **Intel(R) QuickAssist Technology C3xxx** device:
-The unbind command below assumes ``bdfs`` of ``01:01.00-01:02.07``,
-if yours are different adjust the unbind command below::
+Bind to the DPDK uio driver
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- cd $RTE_SDK
- modprobe uio
- insmod ./build/kmod/igb_uio.ko
+Install the DPDK igb_uio driver, bind the VF PCI Device id to it and use lspci
+to confirm the VF devices are now in use by igb_uio kernel driver,
+e.g. for the C62x device::
- for device in $(seq 1 2); do \
- for fn in $(seq 0 7); do \
- echo -n 0000:01:0${device}.${fn} > \
- /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:01\:0${device}.${fn}/driver/unbind; \
+ cd to the top-level DPDK directory
+ modprobe uio
+ insmod ./build/kmod/igb_uio.ko
+ echo "8086 37c9" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/igb_uio/new_id
+ lspci -vvd:37c9
- done; \
- done
- echo "8086 19e3" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/igb_uio/new_id
-
-You can use ``lspci -vvd:19e3`` to confirm that all devices are now in use by igb_uio kernel driver.
-
-
-The other way to bind the VFs to the DPDK UIO driver is by using the ``dpdk-devbind.py`` script:
-
-.. code-block:: console
+Another way to bind the VFs to the DPDK UIO driver is by using the
+``dpdk-devbind.py`` script::
- cd $RTE_SDK
- ./tools/dpdk-devbind.py -b igb_uio 0000:03:01.1
+ cd to the top-level DPDK directory
+ ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -b igb_uio 0000:03:01.1
