Hi Vijay,

Sorry for the delay, we missed this as It arrived while on Christmas holidays.
We'll investigate, though it may take some time as this looks like a pci lib issue
and up to recently we have only been using QAT in primary processes so don't have
expertise yet in this area.

If you could provide some background to your use-case for qat in primary/secondary, that may help.

Hi All,
I am trying to use pci vf device with secondary process in a multiple process mode and finding
pci_dev->mem_resource[0].addr to be NULL. This happens when the pci device is attached to
igb_uio.ko but with vfio_pci it works fine.

Hi Ferruh Yigit/John Griffin,
I am trying to use QAT crypto VF device attached to igb_uio.ko with
secondary process and has observed following errors while setting up
the queues due to pci_dev->mem_resource[0].addr check from
qat_qp_setup. mem_resource[0].addr happens to be NULL when the device
is presented to dpdk through igb_uio but works fine with vfio_pci.ko.
Could you please let me know if the fix mentioned above is sufficient
for the device to work with secondary process.

CRYPTODEV: Initialisation parameters - name: BDF_qat_sym,socket id: 0,
max queue pairs: 0
qat_sym_dev_create(): Created QAT SYM device BDF_qat_sym as cryptodev instance 0
qat_comp_dev_create(): Creating QAT COMP device BDF_qat_comp

qat_qp_setup(): Setup qp 0 on qat pci device 0 gen 2
