Because the IAA Compression Accelerator requires significant user
setup in order to be used properly, this adds documentation on the
iaa_crypto driver including setup, usage, and examples.

+=========================================
+IAA Compression Accelerator Crypto Driver
+=========================================
+
+Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com>
+
+The IAA crypto driver supports compression/decompression compatible
+with the DEFLATE compression standard described in RFC 1951, which is
+the compression/decompression algorithm exported by this module.
+
+The IAA hardware spec can be found here:
+
+  https://cdrdv2.intel.com/v1/dl/getContent/721858
+
+The iaa_crypto driver is designed to work as a layer underneath
+higher-level compression devices such as zswap.
+
+Users can select IAA compress/decompress acceleration by specifying
+'iaa_crypto' as the compression algorithm to use by whatever facility
+allows compression algorithms to be selected.
+
+For example, a zswap device can select iaa_crypto via::
+
+  # echo iaa_crypto > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/compressor
+
+
+Config options and other setup
+==============================
+
+The IAA crypto driver is available via menuconfig using the following
+path::
+
+  Cryptographic API -> Hardware crypto devices -> Support for Intel(R) IAA Compression Accelerator
+
+In the configuration file the option called CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_IAA_CRYPTO.
+
+The IAA crypto driver also supports statistics, which are available
+via menuconfig using the following path::
+
+  Cryptographic API -> Hardware crypto devices -> Support for Intel(R) IAA Compression -> Enable Intel(R) IAA Compression Accelerator Statistics
+
+In the configuration file the option called CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_IAA_CRYPTO_STATS.
+
+The following config options should also be enabled::
+
+  CONFIG_IRQ_REMAP=y
+  CONFIG_INTEL_IOMMU=y
+  CONFIG_INTEL_IOMMU_SVM=y
+  CONFIG_PCI_ATS=y
+  CONFIG_PCI_PRI=y
+  CONFIG_PCI_PASID=y
+  CONFIG_INTEL_IDXD=m
+  CONFIG_INTEL_IDXD_SVM=y
+
+IAA is one of the first Intel accelerator IPs that can work in
+conjunction with the Intel IOMMU.  There are multiple modes that exist
+for testing. Based on IOMMU configuration, there are 3 modes::
+
+  - Scalable
+  - Legacy
+  - No IOMMU
+
+
+Scalable mode
+-------------
+
+Scalable mode supports Shared Virtual Memory (SVM or SVA). It is
+entered when using the kernel boot commandline::
+
+  intel_iommu=on,sm_on
+
+with VT-d turned on in BIOS.
+
+With scalable mode, both shared and dedicated workqueues are available
+for use.
+
+For scalable mode, the following BIOS settings should be enabled::
+
+  Socket Configuration > IIO Configuration > Intel VT for Directed I/O (VT-d) > Intel VT for Directed I/O
+
+  Socket Configuration > IIO Configuration > PCIe ENQCMD > ENQCMDS
+
+
+Legacy mode
+-----------
+
+Legacy mode is entered when using the kernel boot commandline::
+
+  intel_iommu=off, intel_iommu=on
+
+or VT-d is not turned on in BIOS.
+
+If you have booted into Linux and not sure if VT-d is on, do a "dmesg
+| grep -i dmar". If you don't see a number of DMAR devices enumerated,
+most likely VT-d is not on.
+
+With legacy mode, only dedicated workqueues are available for use.
+
+
+No IOMMU mode
+-------------
+
+No IOMMU mode is entered when using the kernel boot commandline::
+
+  iommu=off.
+
+With no IOMMU mode, only dedicated workqueues are available for use.
+
+
+Usage
+=====
+
+accel-config
+------------
+
+Unlike typical drivers, the iaa_crypto driver does not enable the
+device on driver load.  Due to complexity and configurability of the
+accelerator devices, it was a design decision to have the user
+configure the device and manually enable the desired devices and
+workqueues.
+
+The userspace tool to help doing that is called accel-config.  Using
+accel-config to configure device or loading a previously saved config
+is highly recommended.  The device can be controlled via sysfs
+directly but comes with the warning that do this ONLY if you know
+exactly what you are doing.  This document will not cover the sysfs
+interface but assumes you will be using accel-config.
+
+The accel-config tool along with instructions for building it can be
+found here:
+
+  https://github.com/intel/idxd-config/#readme
+
+
+Typical usage
+-------------
+
+In order for the iaa_crypto module to actually do any
+compression/decompression work on behalf of a facility, one or more
+IAA workqueues need to be bound to the iaa_crypto driver.
+
+For instance, here's an example of configuring an IAA workqueue and
+binding it to the iaa_crypto driver (note that device names are
+specified as 'iax' rather than 'iaa' - this is because upstream still
+has the old 'iax' device naming in place) ::
+
+  # configure wq1.0
+
+  accel-config config-wq --group-id=0 --mode=dedicated --type=kernel --name="iaa_crypto" --device_name="crypto" iax1/wq1.0
+
+  # enable IAA device iax1
+
+  accel-config enable-device iax1
+
+  # enable wq1.0 on IAX device iax1
+
+  accel-config enable-wq iax1/wq1.0
+
+Whenever a new workqueue is bound to or unbound from the iaa_crypto
+driver, the available workqueues are 'rebalanced' such that work
+submitted from a particular CPU is given to the most appropriate
+workqueue available.  Current best practice is to configure and bind
+at least one workqueue for each IAA device, but as long as there is at
+least one workqueue configured and bound to any IAA device in the
+system, the iaa_crypto driver will work, albeit most likely not as
+efficiently.
+
+The IAA crypto algorigthms is operational and compression and
+decompression operations are fully enabled following the successful
+binding of the first IAA workqueue to the iaa_crypto driver.
+
+Similarly, the IAA crypto algorithm is not operational and compression
+and decompression operations are disabled following the unbinding of
+the last IAA worqueue to the iaa_crypto driver.
+
+As a result, the iaa_crypto crypto algorithm and thus the IAA hardware
+are only available when one or more workques are bound to the
+iaa_crypto driver.
+
+When there are no IAA workqueues bound to the driver, the IAA crypto
+algorithm can be unregistered by removing the module.
+
+
+Driver attributes
+-----------------
+
+There are a few user-configurable driver attributes that can be used
+to configure various modes of operation.  They're listed below, along
+with their default values.  To set any of these attributes, echo the
+appropriate values to the attribute file located under
+/sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/
+
+  - verify_compress
+
+    Toggle compression verification.  If set, each compress will be
+    internally decompressed and the contents verified, returning error
+    codes if unsuccessful.  This can be toggled with 0/1:
+
+      echo 0 > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/verify_compress
+
+    The default setting is '1' - verify all compresses.
+
+  - compression_mode
+
+    Select compression mode to be used by all compresses and
+    decompresses.  There are a number ofcompression modes available,
+    each identified by a unique string.  These can be selected by
+    echoing the string to the 'compression_mode' driver attribute.
+    Currently, there are only two compression modes available,
+    'canned' and 'fixed' modes.
+
+    The 'fixed' compression mode implements the compression scheme
+    specified by RFC 1951.
+
+    The 'canned' compression mode implements a good general-purpose
+    compression scheme whose tables were generated from statistics
+    derived from a wide variety of SPEC17 workloads.  It provides much
+    better overall characteristics than the existing deflate-1951
+    tables implemented by 'fixed'.
+
+    Either 'fixed' or 'canned' modes can be chosen as the mode to be used
+    for compression/decompression via the iaa_crypto compression_mode
+    iaa_crypto driver attribute:
+
+      echo "canned" >  /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/compression_mode
+
+    The default setting is 'fixed'.
+
+  - sync_mode
+
+    Select mode to be used to wait for completion of each compresses
+    and decompress operation.
+
+    The crypto async interface support implemented by iaa_crypto
+    provides an implementation that satisfies the interface but does
+    so in a synchronous manner - it fills and submits the IDXD
+    descriptor and then loops around waiting for it to complete before
+    returning.  This isn't a problem at the moment, since all existing
+    callers (e.g. zswap) wrap any asynchronous callees in a
+    synchronous wrapper anyway.
+
+    The iaa_crypto driver does however provide true asynchronous
+    support for callers that can make use of it.  In this mode, it
+    fills and submits the IDXD descriptor, then returns immediately
+    with -EINPROGRESS.  The caller can then either poll for completion
+    itself, which requires specific code in the caller which currently
+    nothing in the upstream kernel implements, or go to sleep and wait
+    for an interrupt signaling completion.  This latter mode is
+    supported by current users in the kernel such as zswap via
+    synchronous wrappers.  Although it is supported this mode is
+    significantly slower than the synchronous mode that does the
+    polling in the iaa_crypto driver previously mentioned.
+
+    This mode can be enabled by writing 'async_irq' to the sync_mode
+    iaa_crypto driver attribute:
+
+      echo async_irq > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode
+
+    Async mode without interrupts (caller must poll) can be enabled by
+    writing 'async' to it:
+
+      echo async > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode
+
+    The mode that does the polling in the iaa_crypto driver can be
+    enabled by writing 'sync' to it:
+
+      echo sync > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode
+
+    The default mode is 'sync'.
+
+
+Statistics
+==========
+
+If the optional debugfs statistics support is enabled, the IAA crypto
+driver will generate statistics which can be accessed in debugfs at::
+
+  # ls -al /sys/kernel/debug/iaa-crypto/
+  total 0
+  drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 0 Mar  3 09:35 .
+  drwx------ 47 root root 0 Mar  3 09:35 ..
+  -rw-r--r--  1 root root 0 Mar  3 09:35 max_acomp_delay_ns
+  -rw-r--r--  1 root root 0 Mar  3 09:35 max_adecomp_delay_ns
+  -rw-r--r--  1 root root 0 Mar  3 09:35 max_comp_delay_ns
+  -rw-r--r--  1 root root 0 Mar  3 09:35 max_decomp_delay_ns
+  -rw-r--r--  1 root root 0 Mar  3 09:35 stats_reset
+  -rw-r--r--  1 root root 0 Mar  3 09:35 total_comp_bytes_out

+  -rw-r--r--  1 root root 0 Mar  3 09:35 wq_stats
+
+Most of the above statisticss are self-explanatory.  The wq_stats file
+shows per-wq stats, a set for each iaa device and wq in addition to
+some global stats::
+
+  # cat wq_stats
+  global stats:
+    total_comp_calls: 100
+    total_decomp_calls: 100
+    total_comp_bytes_out: 22800
+    total_decomp_bytes_in: 22800
+    total_completion_einval_errors: 0
+    total_completion_timeout_errors: 0
+    total_completion_comp_buf_overflow_errors: 0
+
+  iaa device:
+    id: 1
+    n_wqs: 1
+    comp_calls: 0
+    comp_bytes: 0
+    decomp_calls: 0
+    decomp_bytes: 0
+    wqs:
+      name: iaa_crypto
+      comp_calls: 0
+      comp_bytes: 0
+      decomp_calls: 0
+      decomp_bytes: 0
+
+  iaa device:

+    n_wqs: 1
+    comp_calls: 0
+    comp_bytes: 0
+    decomp_calls: 0
+    decomp_bytes: 0
+    wqs:
+      name: iaa_crypto
+      comp_calls: 0
+      comp_bytes: 0
+      decomp_calls: 0
+      decomp_bytes: 0
+
+  iaa device:
+    id: 5
+    n_wqs: 1
+    comp_calls: 100
+    comp_bytes: 22800
+    decomp_calls: 100
+    decomp_bytes: 22800
+    wqs:
+      name: iaa_crypto
+      comp_calls: 100
+      comp_bytes: 22800
+      decomp_calls: 100
+      decomp_bytes: 22800
+
+Writing 0 to 'stats_reset' resets all the stats, including the
+per-device and per-wq stats::
+
+  # echo 0 > stats_reset
+  # cat wq_stats
+    global stats:
+    total_comp_calls: 0
+    total_decomp_calls: 0
+    total_comp_bytes_out: 0
+    total_decomp_bytes_in: 0
+    total_completion_einval_errors: 0
+    total_completion_timeout_errors: 0
+    total_completion_comp_buf_overflow_errors: 0
+    ...
+
+
+Use cases
+=========
+
+Simple zswap test
+-----------------
+
+For this example, the kernel should be configured according to the
+dedicated mode options described above, and zswap should be enabled as
+well::
+
+  CONFIG_ZSWAP=y
+
+This is a simple test that uses iaa_compress as the compressor for a
+swap (zswap) device.  It sets up the zswap device and then uses the
+memory_memadvise program listed below to forcibly swap out and in a
+specified number of pages, demonstrating both compress and decompress.
+
+The zswap test expects the work queues for each IAA device on the
+system to be configured properly as a kernel workqueue with a
+workqueue driver_name of "crypto".
+
+The first step is to make sure the iaa_crypto module is loaded::
+
+  modprobe iaa_crypto
+
+Following that the IAA device(s) should be configured and enabled.
+
+The zswap test expects the work queues for each IAA device on the
+system to be configured properly as a kernel workqueue with a
+workqueue driver_name of "crypto".
+
+The below script automatically does that::
+
+  #!/bin/bash
+
+  echo "IAA devices:"
+  lspci -d:0cfe
+  echo "# IAA devices:"
+  lspci -d:0cfe | wc -l
+
+  #
+  # count iaa instances
+  #
+  iaa_dev_id="0cfe"
+  num_iaa=$(lspci -d:${iaa_dev_id} | wc -l)
+  echo "Found ${num_iaa} IAA instances"
+
+  #
+  # disable iaa wqs and devices
+  #
+  echo "Disable IAA"
+
+  for ((i = 1; i < ${num_iaa} * 2; i += 2)); do
+      echo disable wq iax${i}/wq${i}.0
+      accel-config disable-wq iax${i}/wq${i}.0
+      echo disable iaa iax${i}
+      accel-config disable-device iax${i}
+  done
+
+  echo "End Disable IAA"
+
+  #
+  # configure iaa wqs and devices
+  #
+  echo "Configure IAA"
+  for ((i = 1; i < ${num_iaa} * 2; i += 2)); do
+      accel-config config-wq --group-id=0 --mode=dedicated --size=128 --priority=10 --type=kernel --name="iaa_crypto" --driver_name="crypto" iax${i}/wq${i}
+  done
+
+  echo "End Configure IAA"
+
+  #
+  # enable iaa wqs and devices
+  #
+  echo "Enable IAA"
+
+  for ((i = 1; i < ${num_iaa} * 2; i += 2)); do
+      echo enable iaa iaa${i}
+      accel-config enable-device iaa${i}
+      echo enable wq iaa${i}/wq${i}.0
+      accel-config enable-wq iaa${i}/wq${i}.0
+  done
+
+  echo "End Enable IAA"
+
+When the workqueues are bound to the iaa_crypto driver, you should
+see something similar to the following in dmesg output if you've
+enabled debug output (echo -n 'module iaa_crypto +p' >
+/sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control)::

+  .
+  .
+  .
+
+Once the workqueues and devices have been enabled, the iaa_crypto
+algorithm is enabled and available.  When the iaa_crypto algorithm has
+been successfully enabled, you should see the following dmesg output::
+
+  [   64.893759] iaa_crypto: iaa_crypto_enable: iaa_crypto now ENABLED
+
+Now run the following zswap-specific setup commands::

+  echo 100 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
+  echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
+  echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory
+
+Finally, you can now run the zswap workload you want to measure. For
+example, using the code below, the following command will swap in and
+out 100 pages::
+
+  ./memory_madvise 100
+
+  Allocating 100 pages to swap in/out
+  Swapping out 100 pages

+
+In order to unregister the iaa_crypto algorithm, and register a new
+one using different parameters, any users of the current algorithm
+should be stopped and the IAA workqueues and devices disabled.
+
+In the case of zswap, remove the iaa_crypto algorithm as the
+compressor and turn off swap (to remove all references to
+iaa_crypto)::
+
+  echo lzo > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/compressor
+  swapoff -a
+
+  echo 0 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/accept_threshold_percent
+  echo 0 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/max_pool_percent
+  echo 0 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/enabled
+
+Once zswap is disabled and no longer using iaa_crypto, the IAA wqs and
+devices can be disabled.
+
+The below script automatically does that::
+
+  #!/bin/bash
+
+  echo "IAA devices:"
+  lspci -d:0cfe
+  echo "# IAA devices:"
+  lspci -d:0cfe | wc -l
+
+  #
+  # count iaa instances
+  #
+  iaa_dev_id="0cfe"
+  num_iaa=$(lspci -d:${iaa_dev_id} | wc -l)
+  echo "Found ${num_iaa} IAA instances"
+
+  #
+  # disable iaa wqs and devices
+  #
+  echo "Disable IAA"
+
+  for ((i = 1; i < ${num_iaa} * 2; i += 2)); do
+      echo disable wq iax${i}/wq${i}.0
+      accel-config disable-wq iax${i}/wq${i}.0
+      echo disable iaa iax${i}
+      accel-config disable-device iax${i}
+  done
+
+  echo "End Disable IAA"
+
+Finally, at this point the iaa_crypto module can be removed, which
+will unregister the current iaa_crypto algorithm::
+
+  rmmod iaa_crypto
