Below are my some points. Yes,I am using the cpaCyXXX API's so I need steps 4,5,6,7 here. Without SR-IOV, with "ICP_WITHOUT_IOMMU" application is running fine. Here I am trying to run my application on VM with SR-IOV enabled mode. Also I have pass through VM devices to VM and binded those devices to vfio-pci as given in section 10.6. So trying to get response through registered callback function. Regards, Pankaj Joshi If you want to continue using the cpa APIs, then you don’t need DPDK at all, as you can’t access those crypto APIs through DPDK. You should just follow the instructions in the QAT driver you got from 01.org and don’t use the instructions from dpdk.org. If on the other hand you want to use DPDK for crypto, then you need to change your application to use the DPDK cryptodev APIs. The QuickAssist device can be accessed through either method, but they are 2 different user-space drivers with 2 different API sets.

These are steps for using the QA API, i.e. cpaCyXXX APIs. Also the ICP_WITHOUT_IOMMU condition is only needed if intending to access the QAT HW from the Host. If you intend to access the crypto services on QAT via the VF on a VM, then you can use the standard out of the box install for a HOST. Once the VF device is passed through to the VM, on the VM it can be passed straight through to the user-space DPDK QAT PMD without a QAT kernel driver. i.e. follow the bind commands on http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/cryptodevs/qat.html to bind the VF to either igb_uio or vfio-pci Then build your application to use the cryptodev APIs, see http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/sample_app_ug/ipsec_secgw.html for an example of how to do this. If you just want to get it up and running without a traffic generator, you can use the test app to run a sanity check against any of the crypto poll mode drivers, e.g. to run some basic functional tests against the QAT PMD, e.g. use dpdk/usertools/dpdk-setup.sh to allocate huge pages start test app, e.g. test -n1 -l1 (The test app has moved in a recent release, you should find it at either dpdk/build/app/ or dpdk/build/build/test/test ) Run the qat test suite with >cryptodev_qat_autotest > Please help here. > > Regards, > > Pankaj Joshi
