Sridhar, Kanchana P April 30, 2025, 8:52 p.m. UTC
This patch makes it easier for IAA hardware acceleration in the iaa_crypto
driver to be loaded by default with "iaa_verify_compress" disabled, to
facilitate performance comparisons with software compressors (which also
do not run compress verification by default). Earlier, iaa_crypto compress
verification used to be enabled by default.

The iaa_crypto driver documentation has been updated with this change.

With this patch, if users want to enable compress verification, they can do
so with these steps:

  1) disable all the IAA device/wq bindings that happen at boot time
  2) rmmod iaa_crypto
  3) modprobe iaa_crypto
  4) echo 1 > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/verify_compress
  5) re-run initialization of the IAA devices and wqs
