Today, if one would like to run both features using a capable device then the PI will be offloaded (no SW fallback) and the Encryption will be using SW fallback.It's not just running both - it's offering both as currently registering these fatures is mutally incompatible.
For sure we would like to offer both, but as mentioned before, this will require blk layer instrumentation and ib_core instrumentation to some pipeline_mr or something like that. We are interested in doing this IO path but doing all in 1 series doesn't sounds possible. First we would like to have at least the mutual exclusive solution since there are users that may want only one type of acceleration. re-designing, both blk layer and ib_core for the PI + CRYPTO case in this series is not feasible IMO.
