QAT 2.0 Ioctl failed

[triplewy]

I'm having difficulties building and installing the QAT20.L.1.2.30-00078.tar.gz driver on Linux 5.15.152. It fails with the following output:

There is 2 QAT acceleration device(s) in the system:
Ioctl failed
Get real id failed
Ioctl failed
Get real id failed

dmesg output:

I had to follow the advice in https://github.com/intel/QAT_Engine/issues/76#issuecomment-408386959 which allowed me to successfully build the qat_4xxx module but it is unable to run successfully. Any tips on solving this?

Confirmed QAT 2.0 hardware installed:

$ lspci -nn | egrep -e '8086:4940|8086:4942'

Hi @triplewy , what is the OS you are running ?

Can you provide the output of:

cat /proc/cmdline

What configuration options were used to configure the QAT driver?
