The lsmod command verifies the kernel driver is installed. The qat_service command
reports the status of the device. Typical output is:
There is 1 acceleration device(s) in the system:
icp_dev0 - type=c2XXX, inst_id=0, bsf=00:0b:0, #accel=1, #engines=2,
state=up
Note: If the module is not returned from the first command, refer to
the Acceleration Software"
The sample code is executed by installing the cpa_sample_code kernel object for kernel
space, or by launching the application for user space.
The application allows the kernel parameters listed below.

signOfLife Tests
The signOfLife parameter is used to specify that a subset of the sample tests are executed
with smaller iteration counts. This provides a quick test to verify the acceleration software and
hardware are set up correctly.
70
for additional information on starting the Acceleration software.
Indicates shorter test run that verifies the acceleration software is working. This
parameter executes a subset of sample tests. Details are included in Section 10.1.2.1.
(default=0)
Number of buffers submitted for each iteration. (default=20)
Number of iterations of all symmetric code tests. (default=5000)
Number of iterations of all asymmetric code tests. (default=5000)
Run symmetric code tests.
Run RSA test code.
Run DSA test code.
Run ECDSA test code.
Run Stateless Compression test. (Not supported)
Run Stateful Compression test. (Not supported)
Run all tests. (default)
Version of configuration file. Can be 1 or 2 (default).
If you are using the original version 1 configuration file, use 1.
For configuration file details, see the Rangeley Software Programmer's Guide.
Wireless Firmware enabled. Can be 0 (default) or 1.
This parameter can only be used with the version 2 configuration file when wireless
instances are configured.
