[meta-intel] meta-intel-qat: Hardware Acceleration Compression

[Tan, Raymond]

Hi Lazaros,

Could you share your steps/setup on how you determine if neither minigzip or zpipe offloading to hardware?

Hi!

I was wondering on how to use the hardware offload the compression algorithm of zlib with QAT via Yocto.

I have a C3558 Intel Atom CPU. While I was able to use qzip following the instructions found at: https://github.com/intel/QATzip I am not able to do it using Yocto.

I use the zlib-qat recipe and I get minigzip and zpipe but neither seems to offload compression to hardware.

Are you aware of this?

Kind Regards,
Lazaros Lazaridis
