Intel QuickAssist: How to install driver in CentOS 7 Linux

7/29/2019 3:47PM UPDATE: Sorry guys, the first upload got messed up by YouTube transcoding. I’ve deleted it and uploading again to see if that fixes the problem. The source material doesn’t have the same issue, so not sure what’s going on yet.

In this video I show you an Intel QuickAssist Adapter 8950 hardware accelerator PCIe card that can offload crypto as well as compression/decompression functions.

I will show you how to download, build, and install the QAT driver in CentOS 7. In particular, I will show how to setup QAT with kernel API so that it can later be used with ZFS on Linux.
